This is a billboard that is in Dartford:

This billboard advertises the car manufacturers Honda, the main colour is blue as this represents young, energetic and intelligence, it is also a colour for being trustworthy, symbolising that a car from Honda is fast, smart technology, and that they are reliable and trustworthy. The white writing symbolises the elegance and beauty of the cars. The car is gold which implies riches, wealth and extravagence.

This is a billboard that is in Dartford:

This billboard advertises the furniture shop Harveys, half of the picture is in red to draw attention and to also symbolise alertness and excitement, while the text is in white to make it stand out and to show elegance and beauty. The other half is a picture of a lavish sofa to advertise what their products and sale will look like. Blue is a calming and reassuring colour that shows professionalism, which is why the small circle telling the end of sale date is blue.

This is a billboard that is in Dartford:

This billboard advertises Sky Sports, the main picture is of the famous footballer Luis Antonio Valencia so it would catch the attention of fans as they would be able to recognise him, the picture is taken just after he has scored, just like the smaller pictures to the right of it, emphasising the slogan of 'every goal matters'.



These are billboards that I have found on the Internet that have been made for newspapers:

This is a billboard for CTV News, they have put the quote 'believe' as though to give inspiration, showing that their stories are inspiring. 'News' is in orange which symbolises encouragement, excitement and happiness, which once again would reflect their 'believe' quote. The picture of the boy with his mum shows the happiness and how by believing they can achieve something together.

This is a billboard for the Deccan Chronicle newspaper, they have used a young and attractive girl in an almost provocative way to attract a younger generation, 'young minds', which is in red to symbolise excitement and point out that they have purposely made their target audience for the younger generation. 'News made exciting' is also in red to emphasise the excitement and stand out on the light background behind it. A picture of the Deccan Chronicle has been put onto the billboard to show the logo of it and advertise how their newspaper looks.

This is a billboard for The Sun newspaper, it is very simple yet still catches your eye as the bold, black writing stands out clearly on the plain white background, this has been done as though to make a statement of how simple it may be but so very effective. The logo of The Sun is in red which symbolises brilliance and urgency, because it is so bold and bright on the plain background it draws your attention to it straight away. "In Britain The Sun comes out every day.", this is a play on words as what it is trying to tell the audience is that there is new edition of the newspaper every day.

Miniature billboards:

These are pictures of miniature billboards that I have found on the internet. Miniature billboards would usually be found outside of news agents advertising the daily headlines of the popular newspapers that they sell. They are a lot easier than the normal large billboards as they can be changed quickly and without hassle, and they are small enough to have outside of a shop in a highstreet without being in the way.
