1 Schedule Creation: Throughout
this week, I will be creating a realistic schedule that I will be able to
follow in order for me to complete my media project and this should enable me
to submit it in on the 15th of February. The schedule will be
realistic and detailed and I will include 3 activities to be completed as
homework. Out of lesson time homework should contain 4 hours of study per
week.
2 Schedule Creation: Today
I will look at other commitments I have due to other A-levels etc. This
should enable me to create a realistic schedule of how much time may be spent
on the project and how assessable the schedule is. In order to do this I will
have to research into my other subjects about what other deadlines I will
have to meet during the next 6 weeks.
Homework 1: I will be updating all the sheets I have completed and
update them to my blog. This will be done as soon as possible to enable me to
keep on top of my blog and not fall behind.
Homework 2: Font research is important, so this will be crucial to
complete. I will do research on which fonts work with certain layouts and
which fonts to try to avoid.
Homework 3: I will explore the different ways that successful magazines
have laid out their double page spread. I will be looking for layouts that
would work with my articles.

1 I will download the fonts I have researched and start to put
together the titles, subheadings and sell lines I will be using for my
magazine articles.
2 I will use InDesign to create the layouts of my magazines, while
using my flat plans. They will not be completely the same as I may change my
ideas as I go along.
3 During this lesson I will possibly be finishing off the layouts of
the magazine; if I was unable to finish during the second lesson.
4 Project Monitoring &
Homework 1: I will be researching inspiring images that I would like
to recreate to fit my article. I will be making sure that I am organized for
my photo shoot and that the models know exactly what I will be expecting from
them.
Homework 2: I will be creating a draft of my articles in order to
tweak in lesson. This will allow me to have a quiet surrounding to focus on
the article.
Homework 3: I will be choosing colours to use on my layout; the
colours will be researched so I know what colours are best to suit the genre
and the article type. This will allow me to fit my magazine best with the
target audience.
