Lazybone's lazy words.: Share the experience of creating the newspaper with my group members.

We have read news from different media but have you ever published the newspaper by yourself before? Last week, when I was in massmedia class the teacher gave us an assignment that she asked us to edit the newspaper by ourself. It was a very special experience for me because before I started to create it, I didn't know that we needed to think about so many things which included the logo, the photos, the articles, the layout also the most important one is the copyright. We needed to design the logos by ourselves. After I had discussed with my group member, we decided to use the name " Wenzao Peeper" which came from a story,Peeiping Tom. Actually this is not a positive word, but after our discussion we thought that was quite interesting to use this word just like paparazzi like to peep others. We want to know the news about the activities or the stories happened in Wenzao. That's why we chose the name.

And about the difficulties we met is that we didn't know how to use the Rome which teacher recommeded to us then we just chose to use the Peport to do it. Peport is a website that you just only need to sign up to become a member you can start to edit your own newspaper and publish it out. This website also applied many beautiful style of the newspaper or you can use other's sample. Well, for me, this one was more easy for me to use. But when dealing with the layout, I still met some difficulties like the size I was going to use couldn't match my imagine. So I spent much time on figuring out how to organize the articles and the photos also the function of the website for example: I was trying to find out the how to upload the photos, or how to change to size of the decoration and so on...

Finally, we finished our first newspaper and then gave out a presentation to other classmates during the class, we found out that we still have a lot of space could be improved better. I hope that we can do much better next time. By the way, I am going to learn how to use the Rome recently... cause we are going to make the e-magazine for the midterm. And I like the layout of the Rome, it is so beautiful and stylish. I hope I can publish a beautiful magazine which can attract people to read it. Look forward to it !!! To learn a new skill of publishing stuffs.
