FINAL ZINE EVALUATION:

In terms of the visual layout of my final zine, I feel as though the outcome is very successful. I tried to go for a continuous theme in my work with the colorful backdrop which can be seen in all the images. All of the photos except from one, which is an image of my grandmothers wedding, I used photo shop in order to add the bright yellow backdrop in order to retain continuity in my work. I also attempted to keep my work in an order which would show an extent of repetition, spacing the reds and blues in a continuous fashion. The subjects and objects within the images also are very closely linked to the subject at hand, being a variety of war memorabilia and archival images which have been turned into montages. Another point of continuity is the fact that almost all the images have been produced in a studio setting, this allowed for high quality imagery and consistent results throughout the shoot. In order to add another point of interest I decided to add a quote from Winston Churchill onto the right hand corner of the image. I matched the color of the words to tones which are overwhelmingly seen in the images and contrast well within the image. Overall I think that my final zine layout was very successful as it follows a continuous narrative throughout and is visually very harmonious and cohesive.
