In the next couple of weeks we need to finish off the planning side of our magazine front cover/contents page project and move onto the production stage.
In your planning section you need:
- 2/3 rough drafts of different 'treatments' you could use for your magazine
- some market research into which treatment is the most effective (ie create a questionnaire and ask your target audience which treatment the like best). You can record your results as a table, pie chart, etc
- once you've decided what your final design is going to look like, you need to to a detailed plan of what it will look like. This will include what text you're going to use (coverlines, straplines, etc). You will also need to know what is going to go into your magazine so that you can do your contents page
The more of this work you can do at home and come to lessons fully prepared, the better.

PS. I am still missing a few research sections. I must have that asap so that I can mark them, so if I haven't got yours (Patrick, Mohammed, Rob, Zoe, Adam), please get them to me asap. Otherwise you will be staying for the after-school coursework catch-up session on Wednesday.
