The use of newspapers in my film and other films.

Newspapers can have completely different representations, they can be known in films for the characters to be receiving the latest news or for characters to be using them for leisure, such as the crosswords. Also in most newspapers there will be columns filled with things such as vouchers and competitions.

Broadsheet newspapers tend to be shown in films where there are business men. Broadsheets are filled with the latest news both in the UK and the international news. They are aimed at highly educated people.

The Daily Telegraph is a broadsheet newspaper, here is an example;
















Tabloids are also widely read newspapers. More tabloid newspapers are sold throughout the UK than broadsheet newspapers. Tabloid newspapers are aimed at general members of the public, although they do have the last national and international news the tabloid newspapers also publish allot of celebrity orientated articles, the news printed also in these newspapers are usually national or local news.

The Sun is a tabloid newspaper is a tabloid newspaper, here is an example;

















The newspaper that will be used in my film is the Daily Mail, here is an example;

The reason why I have chosen to use the tabloid newspaper; the Daily Mail in my film because most professional people do want to keep up to date with the latest news but they also want to see leisure articles in the papers. Tabloids who publish large news stories and leisure articles include, Daily Mail and the Daily Express. So these newspapers combine broadsheet news articles with tabloid celebrity gossip. The Daily Mirror is also similar however, they tend to focus on celebrity gossip more than the latest news.
