Candidate number: 4131
Centre number: 64135
Week beginning: Monday 2nd February 2015
Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday
Date of
publication:
This is where I
find out a date
when my
magazine will be
released to the
public.
Managing the
schedule:
This is where I
will plan out all
the deadlines in
time for the
magazine to be
published. This
is useful so if any
mishaps happen
we can still meet
the deadline.
Editorial and
budgetary
decisions:
This is where the
editor is able to
decide what
topics will feature
in the next issue
of the magazine.
This gives them
time to sort out
photo-shoots for
the contents
involved in the
issue. Also they
have to decide
how much is
being spent in
certain areas of
the magazine.
Content
acquisition:
This is where the
content is written
up in order to be
published in the
next issue of the
magazine.
Sub-editing:
This is where all
the articles are
checked for
spelling mistakes,
grammar and
punctuality and
making sure all the
articles follow the
house style.
Page layout:
This is where we
will set the pages
out and
advertisers send
us their content to
be put into the
pages.
Proofreading:
This is the part
where a hard
copy is made and
is read through
to find any
mistakes and
corrections that
need to be made
before the
magazine is
released.
File emailed to
printer:
This is where we
will send the
final copy of the
magazine to the
printer who will
then print out
copies of the
magazine.
Distribution:
This is where the
printing
company will
package and
send the
magazines to a
warehouse which
are then sold to
the general
public to buy and
read.
