Deciding my brief for media 

Preliminary exercise: using DTP and an image manipulation program, produce the front page of a new school/college magazine, featuring a photograph of a student in medium close-up plus some appropriately laid-out text and a masthead. Additionally candidates must produce a DTP mock-up of the layout of the contents page to demonstrate their grasp of the program.

Main task: the front page, contents and double page spread of a new magazine.

All images and text must be original and from the candidates ourselves (minimum of 4 images per candidate).

We have have decided to do this brief because of all the equipment we have available and also we think we are capable of producing high quality coursework as we have seen from previous students.

One thing we looked at last was the rule of thirds ... here is the video we watched ... take a look !
