The document discusses various roles the author took on in creating a media product, including proofreader, journalist, layout editor, graphics editor, and photographer. As a proofreader, the easiest role was to scan the work for spelling errors. The hardest role was journalist, which required finding and interviewing a band as well as crafting good questions. Photographer was also tricky to ensure good images that could be used on the contents page and front cover. Blogger and software like Photoshop and Quark Xpress were used to organize work, edit images, and design pages, helping the media production look professional.
