Double Page Spread on being an Investigations Editor + Evaluation



This is my double page spread on being an Investigations Editor. I got the template from Moodle but I changed it about. Firstly I changed the font for both the titles. Then I changed the background image on the first page. It was some pattern thing but I wanted something that linked in with Investigative Journalism. I then changed the font type and the size. My first draft of the article was over 2000 words long and didn't fit on the pages. So I had to go back, edit it and shorten it down and I got what you see now. There was so much space that I just put some black circle thing there to make it good to look at. Writing the article wasn't actually that bad. All I did was write about what I had researched and then added my own opinions and paragraphs. If anything it was easy, maybe I've done it wrong and that's probably why it was easy but its too late to change it now. However if I could change it I would have probably designed my own template, well I would have done it this time round had I more time. Yeah I'd design my own template and design and show step by steps on how I did it. I'd also maybe put some colour in there, because at the moment it's looking pretty emoish so its not that appealing. Also I would defiantly of spent more time preparing for the interview with Brian Flynn. I had his number for about two weeks but didn't phone him and actually interview until the last minute because I was nervous. He defiantly had a lot to say and I feel that had I worked more and planned what I  wanted to get out of the interview rather then asking 3 simple/boring questions I could have got a better experience and more detailed more important stuff. Next time I interview someone I will defiantly look back on this.
