James ( Blue team member )

Hayden (Red team member )

Myself (Quality control team )

Here are some photos which I took from the meeting today:

In the meeting we discussed about the 3 style guides which we had to hand the style guides which we had to hand where as follows:

Haydens article / style guide

James article / style guide

Matt & Taras article / style guide

The following things where brought within the meeting:

• Hayden suggested that we should only have ONE text wrapping image within the articles and it must be a BIG sized image


• James stated that the titles should be BIG and BOLD compared with the rest of the font within the article


• I suggested that 3 collums within each article is a good amount to have as 4+ collums creates to much on one page and makes it look crowded


• Hayden suggested that box outs should be shown in the bottom right of the articles


• We all thought that 12pt font would be the best to use for the main content within the articles


• James said that the best idea would maybe to centre the title on the articles


• I suggested that it would be a good idea to make full use of the colour printers at the newspaper club and include as much colour as possible within our articles


• We all suggested that the introduction should be in bold and set at a slightly bigger font than the other font within the article such as (14pt)


• James said that there should be NO gaps with the articles as it looks as if it is 'unfinished'
  
  

After the meeting Ash, Hayden, and James set to work on creating an overall style sheet / guide for the group to use during the production process of their articles
