Shilington College Brief
Design 2 spreads for Monster Children Magazine.
Inspired by the images and article provided, I set out to create a layout theme that reflected the mood of the story. With photoshop I created the background texture with a grainy effect, using color from the images.
I chose to set out the title of the article in a more distorted fashion separating letters using spacing and/or brackets to give the title an effect that would require the audience to reread the title to gain all that it had to offer.
The choice of font was a typewriter themed font to create connotations of being at a beach house and writing on a typewriter old-school.
Working with heavy text, I strived to create a sense of space to allow my spread to 'breathe'.
