Progress Report 11....Print Production...Amal

This week we have been completing the last touches of print production one, and then by Wednesday we finished that after having some trouble with the colour of the magazine and how it intercepted with the writing, however that quickly settled after re-arranging the layout. It was a great idea writing the copy before placing on the magazine because it made it easier for us to know where we were going to place some of the pictures and copy. Meena originally wrote the copy but it wasn't enough for 3 pages so I wrote the rest while Jaleesa proof read it and checked for any mistakes. The structure of the magazine is laid out very well as we were inspired by some of the article layout in Empire magazine. However we finally finished that and started planning for our second print production. We decided on doing a different layout to the first one as we wanted to make each one unique and original, and again we were inspired by Empire magazine layout as we found that there was an article in the structure of an interview with one of the stars from the film. We had originally decided that we were going to do something like that but after seeing that article like that we really liked it and decided to do it. I organised the layout and the copy while Jaleesa chose the image that would go on there. By the end of the week we had finished the layout and what went on there and now just finishing the last touches before putting it on the blog.

We have now finished both the film production and both print productions so we are very proud of all our hard work we put in it as the end results were the best results.

What Went Well......

* We worked as a group to complete the print productions

* We chose what images and how the structure of magazine would be

* We finished both articles

Even Better If....

* We considered interviewing both the directors and actors

* We decided on what image will best suit the copy

Next Best Step.....

* We complete the second production in time

* We check that everything that is on both print productions have been checked before handed in e.g. spelling, punctuation, grammar etc.
