Introduction to Main Task and Action Plan

The main task is to research and produce the front cover, contents page and a double-page spread of a music magazine. It will be of a sub-genre of my own choice, and must contain completely original text and images.

Action Plan:

- Week 1
  I will post my initial ideas, institution research and an analysis of two music magazine front covers of my chosen sub-genre.
- Week 2
  I will analyse two contents pages and two double-page-spreads and begin to develop a pitch.
- Week 3
  I will develop and create my pitch and research further into my chosen sub-genre.
- Week 4
  I will present the pitch and get audience feedback. I will create a mockup of my magazine pages, produce a "style sheet" showing brand identity and house style. I will begin organising models, props and locations for the photo shoot(s).
- Week 5
  I will design the front cover of my magazine.
- Week 6
  I will get feedback on the cover and make adjustments accordingly
- Week 7
  I will design the contents page and adjust it according to feedback.
- Week 8
  I will design the double page spread and adjust according to feedback.
- Week 9
  I will finalize the design of all pages and begin drafting an evaluation.
- Week 10, 11, 12
  I will develop my evaluation of the pages and post them onto the blog.
