ManualThe purpose of this manual is for the user to be able to utilise this “bat mobile”, vehicle correctly.One of the features that stands out about this manual is the large bold typography that is viable on the headings on both pages. One of the main reasons to why this might have happened is due to the fact that this will allow the user to be able to effectively manoeuvre their way though the page.

The clarity of this manual Is very clear, one of the main reasons for this is clear by the fact that diagrams and the text is clearly laid out. One of the main reasons why I suggest this is due to the fact that both use bold typography in order to covey the instructions to the reader in a more effective manner.The only colours that have been used in this manual is that of black and white, as a result of this first of all the manual will be cheaper to produce as well as being easier so read.

The manner of the language that is being used in this manual also has clarity, this is due to the fact that the language that is used in this particular manual is easy to read and understand as a result of the use of typography as well as clarity has resulted in the manual looking clean.

How to guideIn this particular guide there is a large focus on typography by highlighting keywords in order to convey the main points that are present in the guide. As a result of this the use of clarity has made the guide more accessible to people as a result of the main points being highlighted.

Clarity is also another main focus that is evident in this guide, this is as a result of the simple diagrams that are displayed on the guide to again, to convey the main points that the text is trying to communicate to the reader.

The guide also manages to effectively communicate to the reader as a result of the use of a simple colour scheme. The use of a simple colour scheme also includes a multitude of different benefits when designing the guide.For example you will more than likely be spending less time on designing the guide due to the lack of tools that will be needed to finish the final product.

The use of white is used in this cover with words that have substantial meaning that the designer has wanted the viewer to look at. As a result of this the irregular white text stands out on top of the background.

LeafletThe use of a base solid colour in this leaflet allows the black and white text to stand out clearly, despite this the use of bright colours have made it so that the white text is hard to read, as a result of this the pages are quite glaring to look at.

The leaflet also contains no images, as a result of this it looks rather bland. On the other the hand, the main reason for this is the purpose of this booklet is to inform the reader, as opposed to entertaining them.

Factual journalismThe layout of this page is rather common place with what is found on within factual journalism. For example there is the title of the published paper in the top 6th of the front cover with a large advertisement followed by the main head-line with a sub story to the right.The majority of the cover is black text printed onto of a white background. As a result of this all of the information that has been printed in this fashion is easy to read.There is also a clear use of structure on this cover, this is clear by the strong use of boxes to enclose the different stories, because of this this the readers eye will follow its way across as the creator of this cover has intended
