8th Jan
1 Schedule Creation: This week I will be producing my schedule for the whole project. By making a schedule it will mean that I will not miss anything out which could be vital for the project and I will have everything documented and kept together so I know what to do and when it needs to be done by in order for the project to run smoothly and be finished before the deadline.

2 Schedule Creation: I will be continuing my produce my schedule throughout this lesson and I will be looking at creating realistic deadlines considering my other A levels and when other vital coursework is also due in as that could throw me off my schedule and would mean I could lack behind and miss out vital things. I will document other important deadlines to help keep me on track.

3: I will be finishing my schedule in this lesson and checking everything is in order and everything is included.

4: In this lesson I will complete my Project Monitoring. I will also be booking photo shoots for each article and my front cover and writing a list of props I will need for each photo shoot.

Homework 1: I will write a list of everything that needs to be uploaded to my blog and tick off what I have uploaded and what else needs to be uploaded.

Homework 2: I will complete anything that needs to be uploaded to my blog which I haven’t already completed.

Homework 3:

1 Mock Exam; I will start to write one of my articles, preferably key wardrobe pieces, and I will finish off/redraft my first closet confidential article. I will also scan in my call sheets and model consent forms which my models have completed and upload them to my blog. I will also complete my project monitoring in this lesson as this is the only lesson for this week.

Homework 1: I will continue to write some more of the article I previously started in the lesson this week and hopefully get the first draft completed.  I will redraft the article for homework in my spare time and free lessons over the next two weeks ready to place into my InDesign page once it has been set up. I will also be booking my photo shoots this week.

1 In this lesson I will be executing my individual photo shoots and planning out exactly what images I need to take in each session and what props I will need to use along with angles and poses. This will ensure that I get all of the images I am needing for my articles so that I do not have to re take some photographs, which will cause a delay for my production schedule. I will write a list for each photo shoot for each article and page so that I can tick it off as I go along.

2 I will be finishing the execution of my individual photo shoots for the first half of this lesson to ensure I have thoroughly thought it out against my flat plans and visions. In the second half of the lesson I will be setting up my InDesign pages to the dimensions I wish my magazine to be. I will also be setting up my column guides and margin guides so that the documents are ready to start production on when I have my material to input.

I will be using this lesson time for one of my photo shoots therefore I will do what I was meant to be doing for homework so that I keep on track.

3 I will be creating the layout for my InDesign pages using text boxes so I know where my material will be placed on the page. I will be experimenting and shuffling things around until they look how I want them to look, which could again be changed and moved slightly once the material has been placed in.

4 Project Monitoring & I will be creating contact sheets of the photographs I have taken this week in my photo shoot and I will be reviewing the photo shoot material and things that went good and bad. I will also start to edit some of my photographs using Photoshop changing the brightness and contrast, the filters and colour manipulation.

Homework 1: I will continue to manipulate and edit my photographs I have taken this week in my free periods at college, this is because I do not have Photoshop at home therefore will have to do as much as I can while at college.

Homework2: I will also export my images and store them in a number of different places so that I have access to them at any time and place and so that they do not get lost which will delay production.

Exams/other subject deadlines:
Textiles Essay Deadline which will take up a lot of free time to finish and complete to a high standard and complete all feedback.

1 In this lesson I will start to create my mastheads on my different InDesign documents for the different articles. I will also write the introductory sentence for each of my articles and play around with the few chosen fonts and colours to get the right look.

2 I will be setting up my front cover on Photoshop changing the margin guides and the size of the page. I will place the text boxes onto the page where I wish to put the different sell lines. I will also write my list of sell lines which I will put onto my front cover.

3 I will start to create the secondary elements for each page such as the backgrounds and the textures. I will then start to place in the images and the article and shuffle them until I get the look I am hoping for.

4 Project Monitoring & I will also continue in this lesson to create the secondary elements and placing things into the articles such as the main images so that I can start to build up the pages around the main elements.

Homework 1: for this week’s homework I will be writing my third article for Charity Shop Haul, this will take up quite a bit of my free time therefore this will be all the homework I will be completing for this week.

Exams/other subject deadlines:
Textiles coursework deadline. This will take up a lot of my free time outside of college and free periods. Leisure Studies Essay first draft deadline.

1 This week I will be starting to create the first solid drafts of my articles. For this hour lesson I will be editing the closet confidential article which I previously made two drafts of for the previous unit. Due to my feedback I learnt that one page from each of my two articles were found strongest therefore the audience wanted me to place the two pages together. Therefore in this lesson I will be doing that and shuffling things so that it looks correct on the page.

2 I will be continuing to create the first drafts for my articles therefore for this lesson I will be placing together my images and body text for the key wardrobe pieces article.

3 For this lesson I will continue with first draft production of the key wardrobe pieces article.

4 Project Monitoring & starting to produce the first draft of my charity shop haul article. By the end of this week I hope to have finished 2 of the 3 first drafts of my articles.

Homework 1: Complete more production on my Key wardrobe pieces article so that it is completed in first draft form by the end of the week. It will be hard for me to do any homework involving production of my articles as I do not have InDesign and Photoshop outside of college so I will need to complete this in my free periods at college.

Homework 2: I will be making sure that I have used a continuous house style including fonts, colours and secondary elements. This is key when producing a magazine.

Homework 3:

1 This week I will be focusing on the production of my contents page and my front cover. I will start with my front cover. I will have already set up the document and added in the secondary elements to the page therefore it will include me placing the masthead and sell lines onto the page and changing the fonts and colours. It should take me around 2 lessons to complete the first draft production of the front cover.

2 In this lesson I will continue with the production of the first draft of my front cover.

3 I will start with the first draft production of my contents page within this lesson. Again I would have already created the document and included the text boxes and secondary elements therefore it will be a case of placing the images which I will have from the different photo shoots and the body text to the page and shuffling with the layout and colours and fonts.

4 Project Monitoring & continuing with first draft production of my contents page. I hope to have the contents page and the front cover first draft production finished.

Homework 1: I will be starting to invite peer reviews from my class mates who fit in with my target audience. I will print each of the articles first drafts which I have created and ask people of their opinions.
