Week 14 : A Glimpse of the Magazine
Here are a couple of my spreads from the magazine. The first page is very simple, containing only the title and my name. The first two spreads need to be switched, but I wanted to create some consistency by using a solid color block on the top of each page. For each project, I chose to use the eye dropper to copy a color from the art into the color block. I did this so the viewer can differentiate between the different works easily. I also included the artists name and project type inside the color block as well for more clarity. I also typed the table of contents out in the appropriate colors relative to the projects and page numbers. I wanted to keep my pages as simple, yet interesting to the eye as possible. I did this by using negative space to my advantage and fun fonts for the quotes and titles.

Great layouts - one comment: choosing the appropriate font and consistency of the font. When one has so many different fonts on a single spread, they become distracting.
