The document provides details about a proposed final major project (FMP) for graphic design. The project would be a rock music magazine based in northern England, available both digitally online and in physical print formats. Key aspects of the project outlined include magazine covers, articles, interviews, reviews, photography, website and social media content, potential music videos, and vinyl/CD packaging. The proposed style takes inspiration from 1990s magazines like Kerrang but aims for a cleaner, more contemporary look to appeal to an older audience than previous projects. Photography and developing a strong visual identity are identified as major focuses, along with page layout and composition.

Book Formatting: Quality Control Checks for DesignersConfidence Ago
This presentation was made to help designers who work in publishing houses or format books for printing ensure quality.
Quality control is vital to every industry. This is why every department in a company need create a method they use in ensuring quality. This, perhaps, will not only improve the quality of products and bring errors to the barest minimum, but take it to a near perfect finish.
It is beyond a moot point that a good book will somewhat be judged by its cover, but the content of the book remains king. No matter how beautiful the cover, if the quality of writing or presentation is off, that will be a reason for readers not to come back to the book or recommend it.
So, this presentation points designers to some important things that may be missed by an editor that they could eventually discover and call the attention of the editor.
