Makeing a music magazine


When making a music magazine or any magazine there are some steps in which you can follow if you want you magazine to be successful : http://contentmarketinginstitute.com/2011/08/6-steps-for-producing-a-custom-magazine/


  1. Have a deadline of the plan of your magazine to your editor 
  2. Design a draft for the magazine which will be looked at by a graphic designer 
  3. Have like a story board of all the articals that are going to appear in you magazine.- this is so you can see the content overall and see if it fits or not with your theme 
  4. Printing deadline
  5. Distribution date (sales and marketing)
  6. Content plan 
  7. Plan for each article 
  8. Check 


Now I have been doing some research into making a magazine on the internet and stumbled on this artical which is in a magazine itself by Cosmopolitan http://www.cosmopolitan.co.uk/_mobile/campus/cash-and-careers/student-careers/self-publish-your-book-magazine
it basically gives you a idea of what you have to do to make your own magazine. 

1. Hire a designer
2. Get someone to proof read for you (again and again and again!)
3. Find a printer
4. Content is key
5. Realise that it is up to you to sell your product


A NOTE FROM ME :3 
After reading these I have taken aboard that making a magazine isn't going to be like coming in one day and having a magazine in one day. I will have to plan and develop my skills of being a photographer, journalist and editor which is something that I have never done before but I am up for the challenge.
