YOUR JOB
You are the Promotions Manager for your favorite music artist. You are to make a 2 page newsletter using
Microsoft Publisher promoting your band to the outside world. Dont just give factsconvince your audience that
they NEED to become a fan!
REQUIRED CONTENTS OF NEWSLETTER
Members of the band a little about them individually
Background when they started, when they made it big, type of music they play, etc.
Names of popular songs
Current news of the band/upcoming events/tour information
Dont feel limited to just the above 4 topicsyou may certainly include more. Be sure, though, to get at least these
covered.
You will also be required to turn in a separate Works Cited page showing where you obtained your information.
Cite each page that you use. If you use the bands official website, cite each page of the website that you use, not
just the main page.
THINGS TO REMEMBER
1. Cite pictures on your Works Cited page and also cite underneath the individual picture. (See my example above.)
Use either a copyright notice (息 2010 Microsoft) or Photo Courtesy of _____ if its not copyrighted.
2. Be careful where you obtain the information about your band. Many fan websites may not contain correct
information or pictures that they have permission to use.
3. Dont forget about Flickr for some good pictures! Google is OUTwho knows who owns those pictures?
