Production plan

• I researched existing front covers/contents/double page spreads to analyse the conventions and get to grips with different techniques and styles of how to set my magazine out.
• Then I researched music genres to choose which one best fits me and my research.  I then analysed the conventions again to fit my genre.  I also researched what would be appropriate for that target audience, for example colour schemes, eye catching sell lines, what to include in my contents, the edgy look of the whole magazine.     
• I carried out questionnaires/video questionnaire to back up my research and find evidence from what the public like so I could make my magazine pages to fit my target audience.  I asked questions like, the price of the magazine and what they would expect to see in the magazine.   
• I made drawn drafts/mock-up to sketch my ideas.
• I also made computer drafts/mock-up to create a brief idea in my head with the layout.
• I looked at clothing/makeup/props that would fit the genre of R&B and found appropriate styles.
• I took a photo-shoot of my model and location (different shot types)
• I used Photoshop to create and develop my magazine pages (drafts and finals)
• I looked at improvements and acted upon them, for example the layout and different eye catching points of the magazine. 
• I then finalised my magazine pages.
• Then I produced my evaluation.
