Studio Brief 02 - What is a Book? - Self Evaluation

In conclusion, I believe I have done well during this module of creating and producing publications. This has been very successful due to the previous brief of the small publication really helped me get a proper understanding on what size, shape would be suitable for a book with a certain amount of information and images which I wish to put in a book.

 Along the way during many development and experimental work,I have definitely learned a lot of new binding techniques and different ways of laying out pages for my book. The the headings, paragraphs and images. Nevertheless, I have been through a lot of trial and error during these book making process and has sometimes been successful and some have not. Hopefully during more of the course I will be able to do more work like this, as it was enjoyable to do. Due to it being very personal project brief to create.

 However, due to these technical problems I believe it was quite a down fall due as it wasted valuable time and slowed me down a significant amount of time, for me to get the blogs and design boards properly done than rushing it all in last minute.

Publication Layout - Leah For the inside of the 'Our Generation' publication, the collaborator Leah was in charge of this  brief's outcome segment. The publication's layout was constructed with 'Adobe Indesign' Leah made guide lines and measurements to help assist where the Photographs and the text should be placed. Illustrations of a paint brush stroke was experimented to give the pages more characteristics. We mutually agreed to make the size of the publication A5 format, and the number of pages are 16. Previously it was going to be 17, however one participant was unable to provided us with their childhood photo for us. Due to this situation Leah had to be more selective with the photos and information (Quotes) that we believe was significant for outlining our briefs context.  Below are some images of this layout format: Participant page order by names: Katie Sung  Leah Chen  Jackie Wan Tracey Lau Eliza Mo Kylie Lee Lewis Capper...

Jan Tschichold - Grids

Feedback from Tutor of Publication After  receiving  feedback from my tutor, he informed me to use grids within arranging my layout of my publication pages. This will keep my images and text in a consistent manner, thus making it visually professional. To achieve this precise layout, I will research on Jan Tschichold Grid System. This will allow me, to understand this type of matter of using a grid.  Jan Tschichold Jan Tschichold was a typographer, book designer, teacher and writer  (2 April 1902  Leipzig ,  Germany  – 11 August 1974  Locarno ,  Switzerland ) .
