Dr. Stephen Quinn, an experience sub-editor and journalism teacher, offers practical tips and guidance for the editing and design of print and online publications. Most journalists spend time as a sub-editor or copy editor, so whether you are just starting out or need to further your skills, Digital Sub-editing and Design will be a useful mentor. The first section concentrates on editing in the digital age, demonstrating the tools needed for effective text editing. Dr Quinn shows how to write powerful headlines and captions, and how to edit body text quickly and cleanly. The middle section concentrates on design in the digital environment. Chapter Five introduces typography and the related issues of readability and legibility. Chapter Six covers the principles of design and how they can be applied to print and electronic publications. Chapter Seven looks at the skills of picture editing, including image selection, cropping, manipulation and the ethics involved. Chapter Eight investigates other forms of visual presentation such as diagrams, logos, maps and cartoons. In the final section, these core skills and methods are applied to the World Wide Web. Chapter nine considers recent research into how people navigate Web pages, and recommends ways to write more effectively for the online medium. Chapter ten examines how the principles of print design can (and cannot) be applied to Web pages.
