Coursework Brief
•Main
task: the front page, contents and double page spread of a new music magazine
•Task
to be completed individually.
•All images and text used must be original, produced by the
candidate(s), minimum of FOUR images per candidate.
I have chosen this as my coursework because when I leave school one of my main plans is to become a journalist and I feel this coursework would be good preparation in fulfilling that plan.
