Literary Magazine Project, Day 5; Popular Music Blog Post

Please turn in your homework: "Sound Recording & Popular Music" (chp. 4) ?'s 

BLOG post: On YOUR blog please post a comment about 1 of the following: *on your blog post, please link a sample to the music you are discussing. Use YouTube, for example, to assist you...
  • What is your preferred style of music? Who is your favorite musical artist? Why? What appeals to you about the style or art?
  • What style of music did you grow up listening to? Do you still listen to this style of music? Why or why not?
  • How does your musical style taste differ from your family (parents/siblings) or friends? Discuss your reaction to this type of music and explain why you dislike it, but your family member (or friend) likes it.
For extra credit, you may decide to write more than one post.

Then, with the remainder of the class, please assist to complete the following:
  • Final drafts of your proofread/revised drafts due today! Authors should rewrite and correct their mistakes. After revising, please send your CORRECTED COPY to Ja'Miah (senior editor), Kordae (junior editor), Jezhiah (chief editor), and me (bradley.craddock@rcsdk12.org) = 4 people. 
  • Acquisitions editor (Asia) should check with Ja'Miah & Kordae to make sure that all submissions were returned with corrections done (or the file shared). 
  • Ja'Miah/Kordae & Jesziah should look over the drafts and make sure they are grammatically correct (or that it all looks good). They can change or correct any mistake.
  • Ja'Miah, Kordae, Jesziah ask your proofreading team for assistance reviewing and correcting the master file. Joshua, Akhiyar, Kemani, Britney, Isobel, Victoria, Jenna, Pahz, & Karina should help revise/proofread the master file if asked.
  • If you have questions about a grammar rule, ask your editors!
  • The publishing editors (Ja'Miah & Kordae) will copy/paste all entries into one master file and share the file with Turon (Lead Graphic Designer/Chief Layout Designer)
  • Javant & Raeona (with Turon's help) will design the back cover copy, the cover, and the copyright page. You may ask your proofreading team to help you: Joshua, Akhiyar, Kemani, Britney, Isobel, Victoria, Jenna, Pahz, Karina.
  • Design the cover. It should have a title and relevant information about the book, etc.; it should be eye-catching.
  • Design the back cover copy: this should include pictures perhaps, AND a short blurb about what is special about the collection. Why should a reader buy the magazine? Finally, it should have the publishing logo and ISBN# in the bottom corner of the book.
  • Design the copyright page information. See the standard copyright page form samples. Choose one (or copy and paste to create your own copyright page...)
  • Collect (black and white) some images/photos or graphics you would like to include in the edition. Note: that these may or may not be included in the final copy.
  • Turon will create a title page for the magazine and decide on a FONT style (& size) for the layout.
  • Graphic/Layout team will start a table of contents for the magazine. Decide whose work comes first and then whose work follow whose.
If you have questions about layout/design, how to format something, etc. check with your editors!

If you've run out of things to do, please help other students complete the work. You may work on your other classes or the homework, but please do not distract others from their work!

HOMEWORK: None.
