Weekly Updates - Week 2

This week I started organising my production schedule, so that I knew when I was going to design what, so that I could keep in time and have enough time to design everything.

Weekly Updates - Week 1

This week, I gathered all my information for my magazine and designed a pre post questionnaire which I then asked my fellow classmates to fill out. I then went about gathering all the information necessary to go about designing my magazine. I found this week interesting as it was like the build up to constructing my music magazine.
