Colour Schemes

The Sun



The Sun newspaper has a black and white colour scheme with red to make the title 'The Sun' stand out on the front page. The picture is also in colour to make that stand out as it emphasises the story more and tells what the story is just by the picture and if the picture is in colour it makes it stand out.

Halstead Gazette



The Halstead Gazette uses black and white even for the story title and and puts the title of the paper, 'Halstead Gazette', the pictures and the advertisements in colour. Even though the title of the story is in black they have also put in bold which makes it all stand out which makes the story head line eye catching.

The Braintree and Witham Times



The Braintree and Witham Times is a lot like The Halstead Gazette as it has colour for the pictures, advertisements and title of the paper and then then story in black and white. However they only feature a small prargraph of the story on the front page and have the title a lot bigger and again in bold so it stands out a lot. Most of the newspapers have only a small paragraph of the story featured on the front page.

Suffolk Free Press



The Suffolk Free Press have a black and blue colour scheme for their paper. On their paper front page the title of the paper is in black and blue and the title for the story is in black. the adverts they have on the front page are also in blue however, the pictures are in normal colour. The story featured on the front page however, has a bigger opening paragraph or two compared to the other papers which only have a few sentences as an opening paragraph to the story.
