Little White Lies - Layout & House Style Conventions [Meg]

In class we looked in great detail the layout of a few reviews. Majority of the reviews are set out the same.
In the lesson I learned that:




  • The page size including the margins is 196mm x 245mm 

  • The columns are approximately 52.4mm x 107mm with 3 columns

  • Fonts used: Aparjita, Century Gothic, Yahei

  • 3 numbers for a page number (e.g. 003)

  • Usually 5/6 paragraphs

  • The title and director/main character 
  • information is centred in 2 different fonts
                     - Names are bold but not italic


  • Very particular writing is in bold and italic 
  •  
  • "Reviews" is on the left/right depending on the page in capitals

  • The image will always remain at the top of the page which is often a main character of a film, and will be from the film itself.

  • The authors name will also be included in bold capitals at the end of the review, in the same font as the directors and starring characters shown at the top.
