PARALLEL PROGRESSION ZINE - DESIGN/CONCEPT

Concept

Use of large and full bleed images to relate to what the images are (hoarding design). The layout of each spread shows how the images can be seen as just normal photos but at a closer inspection, you can actually see that they are a fake reality. The unconventional placement of images also reflects where the images have been taken from, it gives the idea of "work in progress" which is appropriate for as the photos are from construction sites across the UK. 

Size 158mm x 210mm (in between A4/A5) "unconventional size" 
 
First Draft




















Feedback from Sam

  • Front and back cover needs to be changed for more impactful images - current images are too ambiguous. 
  • Move around pages so that it is less obvious of what the images are at the start and as you read further into the book the concept of the images becomes more obvious. 
  • Play around more with the placement of images as some of them don't work as well as other - e.g. M&Z Food images could maybe be smaller or in a different position. 
  • Create a scene on a page out of the cutout images rather than having them on the cover. 
Second Draft 


















Feedback from Sam
  • Cover works a lot better - Remove title from the page as the title will be a sticker rather than being printed on, in the style of Ilkin Huseynov book. 
  • Pages/image selection is fine - but play around with the placement more to fine tune it making sure that the book flows nicely from page to page and reveals as it goes further in. 
  • Change the WYS back and add in WYS page - as this is a collaboration between us Sam said he would like to help advertise WYS within the book.
  • Apartment spread - middle spacing needs to be more obvious 
  • Hilton - Make the left image smaller (more white space)
Final Draft





















Title Sticker


A3 Poster - So that an image can be removed and put into a new environment which links to what we have done within the zine. Sam has taken images and removed them from their natural habitat which is what makes them so ambiguous we wanted the reader to be able to do the same thing as he had done when producing the work.
