Editorial / Publication

Rationale:

A few years back every blogger wanted a magazine theme, now, trends have changed, and ‘print’ - is back.

Online resources are useful, quick and easy. But printed magazine’s / publications are more specific to certain needs and allow creatives to gain inspiration not only from the context but also from the physical touch and aesthetic feel of a magazine / publication.

Although printed products are lacking in terms of technology and access, print reaches those who cannot gain access to the ‘latest trends’ online.

As part of an Idea’s to inspire young creatives your aim is to create a monthly trend forecast magazine / publication for creative students and create ideas to inspire action within design

Consider the latest trends in design, creative, food, film and TV to encourage more young people to become inspired within the creative network. Allow for showcasing of new talent and young creative ‘s to evolve a social networking database for designers through a ‘print’ concept.

Create a network via the magazine to connect creative ‘s through opinion on trend / new ideas. 

Push the idea of inspiring action and create the monthly magazine / publication to promote creativity through young designers and creative ‘s.

As well a creating the magazine / publication, you need to create an extensive promotion program, aiming to reach the intended target audience in an inspiring and efficient way. Take into consideration price, themes, creative talents and ideas.

Studioooo Publication - Initial Poems / Illustrations

Initial Illustrations:

We decided to work on an A5 basis so that the poems could work in the same scale of researched poem books. 

Taking a 'Humorous' 'Fun' and 'Light hearted' approach.Keeping an upbeat and simple approach to the design - the layout needs to be approached in a different order as do the designs and simple illustrations.
The illustration needs to be more effective and with more detail.

Contact through twitter:

I decided to contact laura through Twitter as I felt it was a unique and intresting way to get through to her on an informal basis. I bought the book - and was automatically inspired with the process / design and poems. I brought the book to studiooooo and we decided it could be a fun and humerous process that we would love to undertake.
