Breaking news cover
Here's a potential breaking news cover design:
HEADLINE
BREAKING: SHOCKING DEVELOPMENT ROCKS [CITY/REGION]
SUBHEADLINE
[KEY DETAILS OF THE STORY, e.g. "Mayor Arrested in Corruption Scandal", "Massive Fire Engulfs Downtown Area", etc.]
IMAGE
A dramatic, high-contrast image that grabs the reader's attention. This could be:
- A photo of the mayor being led away in handcuffs
- A shot of the burning building with flames and smoke billowing into the air
- A graphic illustration of a breaking news icon (e.g. a red "BREAKING" stamp) with a cityscape or relevant imagery in the background
COLOR SCHEME
A bold, attention-grabbing color scheme that stands out on newsstands. This could include:
- A bright red or orange background to convey a sense of urgency and importance
- A bold, contrasting color for the headline and subheadline to make them stand out
- A darker, more muted color for the image to provide a sense of depth and context
FONT STYLE
A clean, easy-to-read font style that's optimized for quick scanning. This could include:
- A sans-serif font like Arial or Helvetica for the headline and subheadline
- A serif font like Times New Roman or Garamond for the body text
- A bold font weight to make the headline and subheadline stand out
DESIGN ELEMENTS
Additional design elements that add visual interest and help the cover stand out. This could include:
- A bold, graphic border around the headline and subheadline
- A pattern or texture in the background to add visual interest
- A call-out box or pull quote to highlight key details of the story
Here's an example of what the cover might look like:
[Image description: A bold, red background with a large, white headline that reads "BREAKING: SHOCKING DEVELOPMENT ROCKS CITY". The subheadline reads "Mayor Arrested in Corruption Scandal" in smaller text above the headline. A dramatic photo of the mayor being led away in handcuffs takes up most of the cover, with a bold, black border around it. The font style is clean and easy to read, with a bold font weight for the headline and subheadline. A pattern of tiny newsprint-style squares adds visual interest to the background.]
