Fast Food in Hospitals: The Guardian

And issue that lends itself to our argument is thew one concerning the growing obesity in England. Vending machines are a source of snacks and binge foods, but little did we know the impact that they are having in hospitals. The fact that a public area allows its people to eat fast food and drink fizzy drinks is beyond shocking. the importance of keeping a healthy lifestyle should be kept up in places nurturing for the ill; not helping them towards it.
Health regulators Nice advice that no more than 20% of vending machine drinks should be sugar sweetened, and that sweetened drinks should be no more than 330ml. However, Nottingham Hospital offers over 19 different types of fizzy drink, or juice drinks and two milkshake alternatives.

Another source, Jebb, announces its concerns over the meals being served in the hospitals, too. Fast food chains such as McDonald's and Burger King can be seen on some hospital premises. To me, this is a bizarre twist in the article. How can hospitals, who pride themselves in the health of their patients, let the family and friends eat themselves into the hospital beds next to them?

The article brings up once again the issues of obesity in younger children 'Nearly one in five secondary schools is obese, as are a quarter of adults, NHS England estimates. Type 2 Diabetes, often associated with obesity, costs the NHS some £9bn a year, says Diabetes UK'  This issue will surely continue to inhibit the NHS's battle with obesity and other related obesity risks, but until it solves the problems within it's own walls, how can it point the finger at other companies for selling us the sugary intakes that can kill us, when their vending machines are causing half the problem?

Relating back to our coursework piece, this article is an insight into not only the problems people are having with sugary intake, but coupled with the disinterest to play sport can be a critical factor on a young adult's well being.

Fonts on Premier and Da-Font experimentation

 The font above is similar in layout to the film Denali we viewed earlier in the year. Although the words are not as broad the concept of having the audience focused on the words with no sound is the same. With our film we plan to have a slow hum, almost mechanical, to allow the weight of the facts being shown to

Fonts and layouts

These are the styles of fonts I am aiming to achieve in Premier. It combines the serious tone of the film and the sleek professional look we are after. The spectators' eyes will be drawn to the interesting font and will be more likely to engage with the material. What I have noticed is that the information is minimal and catchy to keep the spectator interested. In our short film we will have to make the facts and figures more interesting by having them captivate the audience. The cinematic experience combined with the professional fonts will enhance the viewers experience and make them more likely to share through Facebook and on YouTube.  

                     

 The use of font in this collage mixes the vast impression of the 'Junk' and the sleek look of the 'Subtle headlines'. This would be interesting to experiment with to
