The document provides guidance for a pre-production plan for a magazine project. It includes sections on style sheets, layouts, content, fonts, contingency planning, and health and safety. The style sheet section describes choosing camera angles and backgrounds that are easily readable and recognizable to consumers. The contingency planning section offers solutions for potential issues like poor image quality, damaged equipment, or computer malfunctions. Health and safety considerations include avoiding injuries during photography shoots and taking breaks while working at a computer.

2. Style sheet
I chose these images because the elements I would like to use in my own project are the
camera angle, medium/medium close-up, the use of colour, a black or white background
contrasted with a red masthead and the band’s name being just a little below the center in
big bold text. This is because I feel that this is the best way to present this kind of
magazine, as it is easily readable and recognisable to potential consumers.

Content How You Could Get It
Photographs Gather some ‘models’ and take pictures of them.
Beforehand I will have to plan out what shots I need,
for example: I will need a medium close-up of
someone, what I will do with the background is
something I will have to plan.
Articles I could simply copy some articles from another pre-
existing magazine, but I don’t think I’m allowed to do
that. More likely I will just write my own, I doubt it’ll
need to be an amazing piece of literature but I will
write them none the less.
Fonts Thanks to my experiments, I already know what fonts
I’ll use.
Masthead Use a font that fits or design my own
Sell lines List down some famous artists on the cover

8. Contingency Planning
Potential Issue Solution
My images do not look very good Either try to fix them in Photoshop or arrange
to take new pictures
My product doesn’t look as good as I wanted Don’t delete it and perhaps re-use it as a draft
or re-use assets from it to create a new one
Equipment is damaged If it’s mine, either try to fix it or see if I can
borrow college equipment.
If anything gets lost or deleted Save to a memory stick, or save to both a
computer and memory stick. Have multiple
copies of the work on different platforms.
My computer shuts down while I’m in the
middle of working
Make sure to save frequently

9. Health and Safety
Potential Issue How will the issue be
avoided?
If someone gets injured during photography Make sure the location is safe and make sure
any potential threat or danger is sorted, like
lighting or any miscellaneous surrounding
objects.
Complications relating to being at a computer
too long
Make sure to take a break every few hours, or
for however long I’m working
If I’m taking pictures outside of college, make
sure the people I’m with are safe
• Keep out the road
• Don’t wander off, if so keep in contact
