2. Different Kinds of Make Up

3. Newspaper Makeup
• "Newspaper makeup" is defined as the design of a
newspaper page or the manner in which pictures,
headlines and news stories are arranged on a page.

4. Types of
Front Page Makeup
By Way of Headline and Text
Arrangement

5. The Scholastic Journalism by Earl English and
Clarence Hach gives the following types of
front page makeup by way of headline and text
arrangement.

6. 1- Perfect Balance Makeup
(Balance or Symmetrical Makeup)
-A large headline placed, for example in the right-hand
column front page, is balanced with a corresponding large

7. 2. Brace or Focus Makeup
-Headlines are diagonally arranged from the upper left
to the lower right hand corner or vice-versa just like
a brace supporting a house.
-balance is obtained by various devices such as two-
column heads, boxes, and cuts which are used to
offset the weight concentrated in the upper right or
upper left hand corner.

8. 3. Broken Column Makeup
-the page is broken into several units to give space to many
stories.
-symmetry is obtained be carefully arranging the contents so
as not to cancel each other by their nearness. Large heads and
cuts are placed where they give the page a pleasing pattern.

9. 4. Occult Makeup
-type groups are arranged at varying distances from
the center like two boys on a see-saw.
-it is sometimes called occult or hidden balance
because the type group with its headline may be balanced
with a picture, an illustration or a bow, instead of another
type group.

10. 5. Streamline Makeup-the format is similar to that of the contrast and balance
makeup. However, the nameplate is usually floated,
headlines are flushed up in cap and lower-case (clc)
type, and large body types are often used.
-instead of boxing stories in full, three quarter boxes
are restored to.

11. 6. Circus Makeup
- it is broken-column carried to the extreme. The page
is broken up with no attempt at regularity, symmetry,
or order.
-Many headlines of all size; boxes and cuts are
scattered all over the page, each clamoring for
attention, and screaming as barkers carnival circus do.
There is no focus of interest.

12. Makeup by way of Text and Photo Combination
Layout for Front page:
• The X Format
• The Curve Format
• The L Format
• The J Format
• The Umbrella Format

14. • Makeup of inside pages
• News page
Inside news pages should be laid out as facing page
units rather than as single pages.
• Editorial Page
These pages should have a distinctive, dignified and
formal appearance. The masthead or editorial box
which should be relatively small may be anchored in
any corner as done in streamlined newspapers.

15. • Feature Page
These pages must have a literary and feminine
appearance. The columns are often wider.
• Sports Page
The pages have a bolder and more lively appearance
than other pages. Their makeup should suggest their
content, action, speed and color. Large bold heads even
streamers are used.
