Having studied the articles once they have developed onto (usually) pages 2 and 3 I have laid out a demonstration of what I want my article to look like inside the newspaper. This is following the codes and conventions of the Daily Mail with a few ideas from other newspapers I have seen.
- The blue box situated at the top will hold a further headline which is longer and more specific to the story, this is featured in nearly all the Daily Mails that I looked at.
- The orange L shaped box is where the story will be carried on from the front page, this will start with the usual "continued from page 1" and will then continue from where it was left.
- The green boxes indicate where the images are going to be placed, the three small ones being images of the shooters, the large one being a scene in the school and then the strip down the right hand side is going to be plans and maps of the school and route to shooter took, just like in the Guardian and Mail that I looked at for the cruise liner sinking.
- Finally the red box will include a little summary of the story to grab the readers attention and to inform them as to what the story is about, because the headlines may not give off that much information about the event and so can offer some further information.
