Narrative, Story, research & analysis.

My zine is based on the photographs i made in St.Malo, which i have edited to fit the aesthetic i am going for more, the majority of my photographs are in black and white with a small selection of them in colour.

I have taken inspiration for my zine by looking at online ones and by looking through older Hautlieu students past zines, the students ones were the most helpful for the layout as they had the same amount of images as the one i am making.

The process of making the zine is relatively simple as i know how to work indesign and therefor makes the process enjoyable.

The photos above are some of the photos which i have selected to go in my zine.

The narrative behind my story is interpretive as i am letting the audience create there own story as each individual sees things in a different way obviously for me the photos are set out in a way in which i want them to be shown and how i believe it tells the story of the people in St. Malo, i believe giving the audience the creative freedom to create there own story with my photographs creates better opinions and evaluations on my work as they are able to see it how they want to and there opinions aren’t confined.

The layout of my zine and size is:
width: 148mm
height: 210

The zine is made on indesign which is an app created by Adobe. It is 16 pages with some double spread images.
