IMAGES I WILL BE USING:

The title of my zine will be “bunker” as this will represent the literal meaning of the area of study in this booklet. Visually it is also a fitting word for the title as it is a 6 letter word and it fits well into the measurements of the page.

WHY I CHOSE THESE IMAGES:

Half of the images which I will be using to make my zines will be inverted to create a contrast between the blue lighting and the bright orange. The symbolism for this juxtaposition is the conflict of the war, two sides conflicting each other, just like the calm blue and fiery orange. Two sides going against each other. The other half of my zine will include very simple, highly contrasted black and white images, these represent the reality of the war, grim and bleak.

METHOD:

In terms of creating the booklet, or zine, I will be using Photoshop as this is the easiest way to create a booklet and navigate through the pages quickly and effectively. It also makes it easier to place the images and add text on the top of it if this is something which I find necessary. I have also had previous knowledge in working with inDesign therefore making this process a lot easier for myself. The easiest and often most effective way to create zines is to have a full bleed on the edges of the booklet, meaning that the image goes edge to edge of the page, therefore the image goes across a whole double spread of the booklet allowing landscape images to be seen in full view.
