FOR NEXT WEEK: find 2-3 photos of yourself to give to your partner to use in the layout. They should illustrate you in your glue. Avoid GROUP SHOTS please.
Also, bring in an ACTUAL MAGAZINE you'd like to "work for." This will be your template for your first layout project and you will leave the magazine in class as a reference. If you don't bring one, I will give GOod Housekeeping or something as equally annoying to you. :-)
Create 2-5 question with answer space questionaires for at least 2-3 OTHERS who know your subject within the context of the glue. You will ask your subject to give these to the OTHERS and collect them for you. They will serve as direct quotes.

On looseleaf paper or typed, write out the headline and newsleads (include the who, what, where, when, why/how) of three (3) "incidents" from your summer vacation. Feel free to have a little fun -- it doesn't have to be a serious "newsworthy" story....
