For one of my ancillary texts i have chosen to design a Newspaper advert. Newspapers are slowly going out of fashion and as a result of this Documentaries are now being advertised on other platforms such as websites, TV and Online newspaper articles. It's now very rare to see new Documentaries advertised in a newspaper.
From the newspaper articles which I've found the main convention is that the advert will usually contain an image which summarizes the documentary. The picture above is an advert in a newspaper for the documentary 'Britain's Forgotten Child', the picture shows a child drowning in the pavement and people are just walking past him; in the documentary itself this picture isn't a scene. Like all adverts they're there to appeal to the audience in the hope they watch the documentary.
