Work and decisions

Today I completed tasks 1-4. These were
mainly admin setting up a file, Appendix,
and production file. I also completed the
initial magazine research which meant
finding two different magazines and
discussing the type, publisher, pricing and
target audience.
Today I completed tasks 4-7. I found 6
magazine titles and 2 magazines for each
title in the chosen genre. I also looked at
and produced a document showing the
different glossary items on a magazine
cover.
Today I completed task 8. I found 3 sport
magazine covers and identified and
analysed the style, images, appeal and
price for each magazine.
I also started task 9 which is similar to task
8 although in much more detail.
Today I completed task 9 which is to
analyse in detail 3 contents pages and
cover pages of sports magazines.
Today I also started task 10 which is looking
into colour palates of magazines and
talking about what they suggest.
