1. The composition of the blackboard newspaper

(1) Masthead:

The masthead is the theme of the blackboard newspaper, and it is also the soul and commander of the blackboard newspaper. The success of the newspaper plays a decisive role, so when designing the masthead, the first thing to consider is to reflect the theme of the blackboard newspaper, and the position is the most conspicuous position. It generally consists of masthead words, theme paintings, and decorative patterns. Of course, the complete masthead should also be equipped with the sponsor, publication date and issue number.

The header word generally accounts for about one-third of the entire header and can be placed anywhere in the header. Fonts can be bold, Song, various variations, calligraphy, etc. But no matter where it is located and what font is used, it must be harmonious with the picture and cannot be isolated from each other.

The content of the theme paintings is mainly people, buildings and commemorative signs, animals and plants, and even daily necessities. The general painting techniques are single line outline method, color block method, inkjet painting method, etc. No matter which painting technique is used, the lines must be concise, the image summarized, and the picture neat and beautiful.

Decorative patterns are mostly composed of geometric figures or lines. It should play a foil role in the theme painting, and should be consistent with the center of expression of the theme painting, and the colors should be unified.

The masthead is usually placed in the middle, upper right corner and upper left corner of the blackboard newspaper. Sometimes, in order to pursue a novel and unique effect, it can also be placed in other positions below. In addition, its colors should pay attention to the combination of warm and cold, and the colors of the theme painting and masthead should be both bright and contrasting, so that it can easily attract readers' attention. However, the masthead is usually no smaller than one-eighth of the page size.

(2) Title:

The title should be concise, concise and profound. According to the layout, it can be divided into column titles and article titles. According to the content, it can be divided into serious titles and lively titles. Most of the banner titles are to summarize and highlight the main content and central idea of ??the page so that people can see it at a glance. They are usually placed at the top of the blackboard newspaper. The article title is the title or summary of the content of an article. For solemn and serious titles such as campus safety, celebrating National Day, learning from Lei Feng, the 70th anniversary of the Long March, etc., the fonts usually used are bold, Song and Wei. Lively titles are usually about festivals, hometowns, learning areas, etc. They often use variations and calligraphy fonts.

The article title generally accounts for one-eighth of the article area and can be placed anywhere in the article as needed. It can be horizontal, vertical, diagonal, arc, staggered up and down, wavy, fan-shaped, etc. Generally, they are arranged horizontally and vertically in a staggered manner to make the layout lively and vivid.

The color of the title should be warm and eye-catching (especially red and yellow). In order to beautify and decorate the title, you can paint a background color and write the title text on the background color, or you can draw some lace lines left and right below the title words to set it off.

(3) Illustrations:

Illustrations are patterns in the larger gaps between the sections of a blackboard newspaper, which play a role in beautifying and decorating the layout. The content should be consistent with the theme painting on the masthead, and the expression techniques are mostly single-line outlines and freehand Chinese painting styles. The size should not exceed the masthead, and the number should be one or two in a blackboard newspaper. If it exceeds two, it will seem to overwhelm the guest. Illustrations still play an important role in the color and visual balance of the entire layout, so their colors should be bright and eye-catching; their positions are often opposite or symmetrical to the masthead.

(4) Title flowers and tail flowers

The so-called title flowers and tail flowers are those illustrations in the blank spaces at both ends of the title or in the blank spaces at the end of the article. They fill the blank space and set off the theme. The function of beautifying the layout. They are small decorations. You should try to choose some patterns with simple structures, and the format size should not exceed the illustrations.

(5) Lace and border:

In order to easily separate the articles in the layout, we often use some lace or border lines. This can make the layout clear and layered, easy to read, and can also beautify and enrich the layout.

Lace is also called a two-sided continuous pattern. It uses a basic pattern and arranges it repeatedly in the left and right or up and down directions, extending into a continuous pattern. The patterns on the lace should be neat and concise.

The border line can be a straight line, a polyline, a ray, an arc, an arrow line, etc., and the line type can be thick or thin.

(6) Gaps:

The so-called gaps refer to the fact that in layout design, attention should be paid to leaving a certain amount of space between articles, mastheads, titles and illustrations. Text, headers, titles and illustrations cannot be written or drawn close to the edge of the blackboard. Leave gaps for "sky", "earth", left and right, and at least one word of space around the edges (usually about 5-7 centimeters). The gap between each part should be determined according to the needs. If it is too small, the layout will appear crowded and "airtight", while if it is too large, the layout will appear loose and uncompact.

Looking at the entire layout, the frame spacing is greater than the page spacing, the page spacing is greater than the line spacing, and the line spacing is greater than the character spacing. Looking at the entire length of the blackboard newspaper, the side spacing is greater than the line spacing.

2. Layout design

The design of the blackboard newspaper must follow the principle of looking at the overall situation and considering the overall situation. The first thing to consider is the overall tone of the blackboard newspaper, that is, whether it is solemn or solemn or full of vitality, etc., and then the overall composition and layout of the blackboard newspaper is considered. The layout of mastheads, titles, and articles; the use of fonts, patterns, colors, etc. must closely focus on this general tone and make them an organic whole with internal connections, so as to achieve a harmonious unity of the ideological nature of the content and the artistry of the form.

(1) Layout format:

There are usually three types of layout formats: horizontal, vertical, and a combination of horizontal and vertical. The most commonly used form is a combination of horizontal and vertical, because it is not easy to make the layout dull and rigid. The most important article content should be placed close to the masthead, just like the "front page headlines" in newspapers. The rest of the article content is regarded as important and placed in the corresponding layout according to the visual effect value rule of "the upper left part is greater than the upper right part, the left part is greater than the right part, and the upper part is greater than the lower part".

(2) The layout of the layout:

The layout should be appropriately arranged according to the promotional theme of the blackboard newspaper and the attention value of the layout, and should be neat, organized, eye-catching and beautiful. .

M and W types, twenty-character type, chain type, cross type, banner type, ladder type, diamond type are the more common bone types, as well as radial type, concave and convex type, etc.

3. The use of color:

In addition to serving the theme, the use of color also has another purpose, which is to attract the reader's attention, arouse the reader's emotions, and leave the reader with a lasting impression. Make a deep impression. When using colors in blackboard newspapers, attention should be paid to the following two points:

(1) Determine the main color of the blackboard newspaper according to the content requirements of the blackboard newspaper. For example, if the content is about celebrating a festival, the main color should be red; while the life in schools and military camps is full of vitality and health, green should be the main color. After determining the main color, add two to three auxiliary colors, which not only highlights the theme, but also makes the overall layout have a harmonious beauty in terms of visual and emotional effects, making people feel happy.

(2) Use color contrast appropriately. The use of color contrast in blackboards is very important, mainly the contrast between the main color and the auxiliary color; the contrast between the auxiliary color and the auxiliary color. There are usually three contrast methods: hue contrast, cold and warm contrast, and area contrast. These three methods are often used comprehensively. If the main color is too warm, the cold color used as the auxiliary color can be larger in area and pure in hue to achieve a visual balance of colors. Good use of color contrast can make the entire layout lively and colorful, which will strongly stimulate readers' vision, making up for the shortcomings of blackboard newspapers that contain less information, have a long replacement period, and are difficult to attract readers' attention.

4. Text writing:

A pleasing blackboard newspaper should not only have a reasonable layout design, a beautiful masthead and title, and a harmonious combination of colors, but also should be accompanied by a decent and beautiful hand. Only the chalk characters can show the practicality and artistry of the blackboard newspaper, and it can be considered a perfect blackboard newspaper.

When writing the content of articles, the fonts are usually regular script, imitation Song style, fine line style, official script, and running script. Especially regular script, imitation Song style is the most commonly used. Generally speaking, some short and important content can be written in official script and thin isoline script; if the article is longer, it can be written in running script as appropriate. In blackboard newspapers, avoid using other fonts such as cursive script and seal script for article content, so as not to lose the newsiness, accuracy, simplicity and flexibility of the blackboard newspaper.

It should be pointed out that no matter which font is used, the font size can only account for one-half to one-third of the entire line width. If it exceeds one-half, the layout will be It will appear crowded; if it is less than one-third, the layout will appear loose.

It should also be noted that white chalk should be used when writing text. If you use chalk of other colors, it will easily make the layout too fancy, which will lead to chaos in the layout.
