The document summarizes the development of a personally created music magazine. It describes the initial ideas, conventions portrayed, first drafts, intended audience, comparisons to other magazines, feedback received, and development process. Through feedback and refinement, changes were made to the front cover name, images, color scheme, contents page structure and text, and removal of unnecessary text. Skills such as Photoshop were used to make the magazine look professional.
