30th January - 2nd February

1st Lesson
In this lesson I began to add boxes to a double page spread that is going to be for my band article. I worked out where the image and text would go in correlation to the Lily Allen article out of NME.
2nd Lesson
 I added my completed article in this lesson and arranged it like the NME article so that it only needed images and I then began the contents page.

3rd Lesson
In this lesson I added things to my blog such as the schedule and photoshoot plan and started work on the contents page.
4th Lesson
I continued my contents page and modelled it on a kerrang contents page, and did this weekly monitoring blog.

23rd January -26th January

1st Lesson I finished off my "Blaggers guide to being a SceneKid" article and then put it into my DPS and positioned it on the page the text was going.
2nd Lesson
In this lesson I continued work on my DPS to make it look similar to the Kerrang Murderdolls article. In the image below I made the text boxes linked within the article so it flowed better and then left it so i can input the images when i've taken them.

3rd Lesson
In this lesson I thought up my second DPS idea and began researching the topic. I then started typing it up and began thinking of a suitable photoshoot that will give me the images I need to make he article.
4th Lesson
In this lesson I finished my second article and did this post, finishing this article allowed me to start doing my layout on monday.
