The document provides instructions for a design project to create the front page, contents page, and a double page spread for a new music magazine. Students must use desktop publishing software and image editing programs to produce an original front page with a student photograph in medium close-up and appropriately laid out text and masthead. They must also create an original contents page layout. The main task requires at least four original images and text per student across the three magazine pages.
