The Flag (or Nameplate)

Today, you will begin work on your newspaper design. Remember, the name and style of your newspaper is entirely up to you. We will again be working with the tabloid grid.

Your first order of business is to design a flag (or nameplate). You must name your paper, decide on the font style and size (should be LARGE and BOLD) of your nameplate, and use of spot color (1 color applied in strategic places on a page). 

Remember that a flag not only states the name of your newspaper, but also includes the volume and issue numbers, publication date, and city and state where the paper is published. It may also include a graphic, if you feel advanced enough to do so.
