- How you want your design to look
- Format, size and orientation
- Narrative / visual concept
- Design and layout
- Rhythm and sequencing
- Images and text
- Title and captions
(remember to refer to these bullet points when describing, explaining and evaluating your zine / exhibition catalogue)
Zines are a powerful medium for self-expression, representing thriving subcultures and independent publishing driven by creativity and individuality. Zine-making is a labour of love, often produced by individuals or small groups—known as ‘zinesters’—reflecting passions and perspectives outside mainstream media.A zine is a small-circulation self-published work of original or appropriated texts and images, usually reproduced via a copy machine. Zines are the product of either a single person or of a very small group, and are popularly photocopied into physical prints for circulation.




These were the settings we had to set for the zine layout.

This what it creates both the first and last have one page which is split into 2 and all the middle pages have 2 which is split into 4.
I the chose my images and started putting them onto pages like this.
Here are some of the pages i made.
