Scanner- skips page to page, needs reason to read
Hunter- Looking for something specific
Grazer- Reader of full paper
Brainstorming is important: Getting a writer, photographer, and Graphic Designer tegether can lead to dynamic layouts.
Every noewspaper page should have a center vidsual interist, or CVI
Info graphics can be simple and effective
this combination of writing and visuals can be called packaging
photos can be rearanged, something simple like cutting and matching a visual can lead to a better story. Fonts are important, as well as color choice.
Sometimes it is good to borrow ideas from the layout and design of other newspapers/yearbooks/magazines.
Sometimes it is good to have the input of random students - it breaks up space and catches the readers eye.
Again: fonts and titles are important for the scanner-type readers.
