Welcome back!

Hope you all had a great halfies. Here are your tasks for today!

1. Create a post where you analyse a magazine front cover (similar to the one you are going to create in its genre) where you annotate it using publishing jargon. (Masthead/house style/pugs/puffs/taglines/straplines/barcodes/price/cover shot/subsidiary images).

2. Begin to plan the layout of your magazine cover, contents page and double page spread. Research similar products to give you ideas. Feel free to annotate and upload any texts from which you gain inspiration.

3. PLAN your photoshoot which you will be doing this weekend! You must give thought to all of the following:

*Who are you going to photograph? (they will need to look convincing as a band/artist)

*Mis-en-scene - How are you going to shoot so that your artist looks believable? For example, on a couch eating biccies = No; Wearing eye-catching clothing and photographed against a wall full of graffiti? Perhaps! You need to consider props, setting, costume, lighting - all aspects!

*How many photos will you take and where will they be used? Remember, EVERY shot in your project has to be taken by you...eventiny little thumbnails!

Make sure you have a shot-by-shot plan so that you are ready to go!

Good luck!
