Designing a Magazine

magazine-coversFor our next project, you will design an autobiographical magazine. We will refer to it as the Autobiographical Zine project. You will have to create and print a 12-page zine (not including the cover) about yourself. You will be required to use images and all the typographical implementations that we’ve covered so far. You will even include a table of contents and numbered pages (we will get to this in coming weeks).

A site that will be very helpful to you in the next coming weeks is Magazine Designing. You should bookmark this site because we will be referring to it often. There are plenty of tips and tutorials to help you with your design.  I suggest you get started by reading the article Structure of the Magazine.

For class on Monday, March 17th bring a copy of 2 different magazines with you to class and we will begin to take a look at the common elements of magazine design.
