I have started to look at my ancillary tasks that go alongside my documentary. By taking pictures of current newspaper double page spreads in order to understand the conventions and customs of what a reader would usually expect to see.
Above is a screenshot from the search engine 'Google' when I typed in newspaper advert/double page spread. After just scrolling I have started to notice similar layouts and items that appear in different newspaper articles.
After looking at the conventions above I have realised there are several things I need to think about, such as what I will need to achieve an authentic piece of work. Such as; photographs to accompany the text. Perhaps quotes from an interview with someone from the cast/directing (I could include quotes from myself and what I wanted to portray or achieve through creating the documentary). Look into specific layouts, such as spacing, appropriate title and or font choices as well as colour schemes. I maybe need to think about keeping things similar between the advert and double page in order to create consistency and something that they can link the two with.


A good start to the research. You will need to become more focused adn in depth.
