Images for my coursework production


Above is an image from inside the Liverpool Albert Dock. I have chosen to use this image of the Albert Dock because it shows the Dock from the inside rather than it being a shot of the front of the Dock. There are also boats in the background floating on the water and this is representive of what the Albert Dock is, a port.


Above is an image of my younger cousin. I shot this picture to use for my sport story/children story. I wanted to represent how young children are able to pursue their dreams even at an early age. I decided to take the image with him standing against a clear, plain canvas because it allowed him to stand out in the picture, leaving the focus on him. The colour red (his football kit) carries connotations of passion and this could be an example of his passion to want to become a professional footballer.

Above is an image of a bin that has been knocked over in a local park. Whereas the colour red can carry connotations of passion, it can also carry connotations of danger and seeing the bin being ripped from the floor is a clear sign of vandalism. The photo was also shot in a park so it is effective because it can draw an emotive response from the reader, particuarly parents, as parks are the type of place they would be taking there children.
Although my newspaper is aimed more at a younger age range I would still be expecting older ages, especially parents from the area to read it.


Here I have chosen to use a football badge to represent the clubs. The photo is simple but get to the point of showing that this particular section refers to the team Everton FC.


This is an image I took of a plain white t-shirt. I used photoshop to add on my newspapers logo and the text, "The Liverstop" "Know Your City". I did that as a sort of campaign in which people will see this t-shirt and what it says and become familiar with my newspaper. I have also advertised it in my newspaper by offering it to the winner of a competition.
