Q8 - 5 marks - Observer online

PREP
To revise the 'media language' question, you focus on the layout. It is a quick and easy question, worth 5 marks and only 2 examples needed. Please copy the question onto your blog and write the 2 examples taken from the recent Observer online. The answers below will help you.




The use of a dark blue colour for the header connotes serious, sober and objective news. The colour blue infers a serious and formal feeling to the site and helps tell the reader that this newspaper covers hard news.

The highly ordered layout of the homepage with columns and squares making it clean and sorted, the use of white for a background and the little use of graphics and big pictures present a fresh, non-cluttered experience for users which also presents a seriousness that tells the reader that there will be hard news.
