A New Improved Feature Article

After assessing my article, I then edited it using the improvements I decided to make. Below is my new and improved article.

Please click on the document to open it up for easier reading.

I improved my article by:

  • Adding a catchy title (linking to a part in the article).
  • Made sure each paragraph started off differently and interestingly.
  • Making certain sentences shorter and easier to understand.
  • Giving some context of where the interview had taken place.
  • Improving some vocabulary to make sense or so that it didn’t repeat.
  • Added more gossip and personal life in. I hinted about having some bad friends, and changed the name of my boyfriend so that the audience are even more interested.
  • I took out most of the brackets as I had overused them.
  • Add a closing sentence to finish the interview off from the journalists perspective.

All of these improvements adds more interest for the audience which will hopefully keep them entertained and informed throughout the article. Hopefully it will enable talk to family and friends based on what has been included and released by the artist.

With this article, I could add even more gossip to create even more excitement from my target audience. This will ensure that Blumler and Katz’s uses and gratification theory are achieved; especially the entertainment section. I will also need to make sure that the article is laid out on the double page spread in a way that is interesting and easy to read. The font will need to be clear and the photo used alongside the article will also need to be interesting and must link in with what has been written.
