Work to be completed by Friday 16th October

1. Reader Profile for your student magazine. Try putting it into imovie and adding music to it.
2. Flatplan suggestions for your front cover, do a couple and show them to your focus group, ask them which they think is the best & why, that is what they are there for!
3. Take photos for your student magazine.

Upload all of these to your blog. You can always take a photo of your flatplans and upload them that way if you cant scan.

This is the exam boards definition.

Preliminary exercise: using DTP and an image manipulation program, produce the front page of a new school/college magazine, featuring a photograph of a student in medium close-up plus some appropriately laid-out text and a masthead. Additionally candidates must produce a DTP mock-up of the layout of the contents page to demonstrate their grasp of the program.
Main task: the front page, contents and double page spread of a new music magazine (if done as a group task, each member of the group to produce an individual edition of the magazine, following the same house style). Maximum four members to a group.
All images and text used must be original, produced by the candidate(s), minimum of FOUR images per candidate.
