Session 5

⋅

In this session we were experimenting with a variety of layout styles and fonts for our zine content. My target audience is teenage, so the layout and font type should be fun, youthful and colorful. I was also considering about my research magazine/zine: Polyester, Buffalo, Dazed and Love.

I was not completely done with my interview content yet, so these were just a draft content. I used some of the pics I created from last session which I realized that most of them were the zoom in or half top portrait that can’t be seen much of clothes and product. Therefore, I have to focus more on styling which is my pathway direction. I need to take more photos of the full outfit, clothes, accessories and products! Carlyn told me that the font I used is ok and appropriate for this type of zine.

Carlyn suggested me to use the SELF background pattern on the right hand-side page to make it kind of connected to each other. Furthermore, she said this image is more suitable for the front cover and I’m agree with her because it has the SELF theme there and the plastic wrap as well.
Carlyn told me that this is her favorite one, the colors and layout works very well as 2 pages. However, I think I can rearrange the text better in indesign because I could’t make it align to the edge in photoshop.
