Brief
Response
To produce a fictional independent magazine concept in groups of five, and to produce the front cover. Things to consider when creating our idea were: Concept , Audience , Aesthetic , Strategy , Lifespan & Progression. The brief also requested considerations for a kickstarter campaign to support the fictional magazine.
The fictional magazine was given the name ‘Off the Grid� The concept derives from looking at how people live outside of mainstream society. The aesthetics of the magazine focus on hand rendered typography , hand/made hand crafted elements , recycled paper , tactical feel, hand bound spine , and a natural colour scheme.
