Analysing Students work

Looking at past students work is helpful in influencing in my product. It is clear to see how they adapted conventions of Local newspapers to their product. The fact I was able to recognise this has strengthened my knowledge and made me feel confident that I will be able to do it for my own product.  Something that the past students work did well was have a house style, consisting of recognisable fonts and  colour scheme. This has influenced my own product. Looking at Existing products has been helpful as it has showed me what not to do for my product. Although the majority of the students work I looked at included the correct conventions, some didn't, for example in 'The North East Inquisitor', the layout of the articles does not follow the standard conventions of a Local Newspaper.
