We have seven lessons left until the end of term!
In that time we need to prepare for the Film Industry case study which will take about two lessons.
You need to put aside at least nine hours to work on your Foundation Portfolio. This must be completed before Christmas and I need to explain the evaluation focus to you.
If you feel you are slipping behind now may be the time to sign up for the Adobe free trial of Photoshop and InDesign. This is free for 30 days.
If I were you I would download it and blitz your production in one go.
This weekend you need to write your copy for your double page spread. Save it as a word document and email it to yourself. That will make it very easy to copy and past into InDesign.
Copy means the article. You need to refresh your memory and read some articles from existing music magazines. Music journalism is a very creative and well respected form of writing. Consider the house style you would like to re create.
Do you want it to be a straightforward question and answer interview or will it be a more retrospective analysis of their career and influence?
What synergy can you incorporate?
Have they a new album, tour or collaboration or project to promote? The answer is- probably. Artistes don't tend to be featured in a magazine unless there is some news about them or there is something to promote.
Consider the lexicon of words you created, use as many of those terms as possible and think about the brand identity and house style that you want to establish.
Consider the genre and the target audience that you are addressing- what would they be interested in finding out when reading this magazine?
