This document outlines the content and design plans for a music magazine. It includes:
- A front cover image of an artist holding a microphone addressing the camera.
- Contents including reviews, guides, features on artists/festivals and more spread across regular and featured sections.
- The main contents page image will be of the interviewed band, with additional images of musicians playing instruments.
- A double page article spread will profile the band "Fools on Parade" discussing their history, performances and future plans, accompanied by rehearsal photos.
