TV Listings Article

George Mobley

Article features a large main image giving some idea what the documentary will be about while there are smaller images spread over the rest of the page, usually images from the documentary itself which is a typical convention we have followed.

Main article features many typical conventions of TV listings articles such as drop cap, small easy to read font and in this case subtitles which break the article up for easy reading which is something we saw in TV choice and decided to use as we were making a double page listing for TV Choice.

A large title which stands out and draws readers attention followed by a smaller sub title is a feature we originally saw in a TV listings magazine but then developed by changing the colours to fit with the colour scheme.

Small captions placed over the top of images to allow readers to fully understand the image is a typical convention we chose to follow.

Pull quotes are a typical convention we chose to follow however we developed his idea by using a brightly coloured background to set them against so they stand out and grab the readers attention.
