designing magazines/film sets

In my Typography 3 class, our current assignment is to design our own magazine. It's been an interesting journey so far, considreing I've never done a project like this and there are so many details you have to think about. But it certainly has been fun to research and find truly good magazine design. Here are some things that caught my eye: This editorial spread is nice and clean and I like the way the imagery flows nicely throughout the entire piece. As a reader, it would certainly intrigue me.




In other news, my filmmaker friends from Watkins are currently in my apartment filming on friend's production 2. It's always nice to help out a friend, and having a new experience is good too. It's been so great developing friendships with people who are studying film, because honestly I have come to appreciate movies in an entirely different way. I see them differently, and I think about the story more compared to when I would turn a movie off if it was "too slow." My boyfriend is also a film student at Watkins and he has taught me a lot too. They always talk about film with so much passion and I always love to hear people when they are passionate about something.
So if you get the chance, ask a film student why they love film making so much and I promise you will be in for an interesting conversation.
