I need to ensure
that my magazine

Due to bands and
artists not touring
all the time I would
have more time in
order to include
more information

it makes the

The date of
publication will be
decided on this day
as well as everyone
will work together
in order to create a
schedule of the
work that needs to
be done.
The magazines
editing team will
be able to decide
what contents will
be going into the
magazine and
they will also
decide what ever
the biggest artist
or biggest
story/gossip is will
be the main
image on the
front cover.
At this point the
“external” and
“internal” writers
will decide what
content and
graphics that will go
into the magazine.
This is a vital part of
the magazine
productions as they
must look
professional and
relevant.

At this stage the
layout staff will use
different programs
such as “InDesign” or
“PageMaker” in
order to type out and
set the layout of all
the pages of the
magazine. Then the
decided adverts from
different companies
get placed into the
magazine to which
the magazine makes
a large portion of its
profits.

Then the “editorial
team” will print out a
hard copy of the
magazine in order to
read through it and see
if there are any issues
that need to be taken
care of. It is also
important that every
member of staff is
satisfied that there are
no errors within the
magazine, and if there
are they will be
corrected on a DTP file
done by editorial team.
This makes it a vital
stage as it ensures that
the content, layout and
final product meets the
satisfactory needs
before it heads out to
the general public.

The entire magazine gets sent
to the printer ‘who's job is to
print out the magazines
copies’ and they are pre-
pressed and the magazine is
checked to ensure that all the
fonts, text and images have
gone through correctly and to
a perfect condition. Also a few
copies get sent back to the
publications editors who do a
quick check to ensure that
everything looks in working
order. If everything is in order
then they give the go ahead to
print out the thousands of
copies that will meet the
demand of the magazine.

In this final section the
printing company will
have finished printing
and will pack away the
magazines and send
them to the warehouse.
At the warehouse they
will get distributed and
sold to the public and
this is the point where
the public will get
access to the magazines
and be able to absorb
the information to do
with their favorite
artists.

16. I like these fonts for my Masthead because they are simple and bold in order to catch the
readers attention. Due to the fact that the fonts are bold makes it easy for the consumer to
see and recognize which magazine it is.Also the majority of these fonts link to the style of
music that will be inside the magazine.

In order to ensure that my magazines are high quality and include great content I have
decided to raise the salary by a couple thousand to ensure that the work in getting done and I
will ensure that the candidates will be worth the money I am willing to pay for them. As you
can see I have got a lot of different occupations for each job and this is to make sure that
everything is done to a great quality and it also helps to reduce stress for the workers as not
one of them has to do all the work.

30. I created this back page as a Holiday
advertisement page as this would
allow the readers to see the
advertisement that would have paid
the magazine company in order to be
into the magazine and advertise their
products to the readers.The simple
black and white background design
depicts what it is like on a Holiday in
Britain and it also helps by making the
yellow text on the page to look bright
on the page attracting the readers
attention to the text informing them
about the holiday.
