Brief + Conventions For Newspaper

The main task for my a2 media coursework is the first two pages of a new local newspaper, together with:
-A poster for the newspaper
-A radio advertisement for the newspaper

My newspaper will be similar to the Isle of Wight County Press, which is aimed at 15+ and includes news, sport and entertainment. i need to include the following in my newspaper:
-Masthead: I need a bold title which people can recognise as my newspaper. I will also decide a name.
-Coulumns: I need to write my newspaper in columns as this is the usual format for newspapers.
I will include photographs in my newspaper, these will be high quality and will be used for the adverts and my news stories.
date/price/website: I will need to include the date, price and website so that people can easily see how much the newspaper costs. I need to include the website so that people can access the newspaper via the web.
Contents page: I need to include a contents page so that people can skip to what page they want to look at and so that they can easily see what is inside the newspaper.
