- 7. 2. Brace or Focus Makeup -Headlines are diagonally arranged from the upper left to the lower right hand corner or vice-versa just like a brace supporting a house. -balance is obtained by various devices such as two- column heads, boxes, and cuts which are used to offset the weight concentrated in the upper right or upper left hand corner.
- 8. 3. Broken Column Makeup -the page is broken into several units to give space to many stories. -symmetry is obtained be carefully arranging the contents so as not to cancel each other by their nearness. Large heads and cuts are placed where they give the page a pleasing pattern.
- 9. 4. Occult Makeup -type groups are arranged at varying distances from the center like two boys on a see-saw. -it is sometimes called occult or hidden balance because the type group with its headline may be balanced with a picture, an illustration or a bow, instead of another type group.
- 10. 5. Streamline Makeup-the format is similar to that of the contrast and balance makeup. However, the nameplate is usually floated, headlines are flushed up in cap and lower-case (clc) type, and large body types are often used. -instead of boxing stories in full, three quarter boxes are restored to.
- 11. 6. Circus Makeup - it is broken-column carried to the extreme. The page is broken up with no attempt at regularity, symmetry, or order. -Many headlines of all size; boxes and cuts are scattered all over the page, each clamoring for attention, and screaming as barkers carnival circus do. There is no focus of interest.
