Finishing off local heros page

Now that we had written the story and taken our photos there was only a few bits left to do and some adjusting.


We decided to put in a pull quote as we noticed this was a common convention in newspapers. We made the quote slightly different to what was actually said in the article so it isnt exactly the same. With the pull quote we made it a slightly different colour to the rest of the page so that it would stand out. Using a pull quote helps the reader get a better idea of the person who the stories about and what to expect.


We also noticed that the main photo on this page needed a caption. We came up with;
' Proud Claire Crutchly with gold medallist James Thompson '


This tells you abit about who the people are in the photo and abit about them.

The "Spun Gold" pun- this comic reference is supposed to encompass both the spin of a table tennis ball when struck and the gold medal of champion player.
