Introduction

As part of my AS Media coursework, I have been asked to create a front cover for a music magazine, as well as a contents page, and a double page spread. Although before I do these, I will first create a front page, a contents page and a double page spread for a college magazine - as a prelim to the music magazine pages. This blogs track the creation of these magazines, and will show all of my research.
