Articles 2 and 3

Good evening, friends,

I have been incredibly sick lately, so meeting the deadlines for this magazine did not go as planned, and it makes me very sad. I gave it my best and learned a lot about paragraph styles, spacing, leading, text wrap, and making photos fit proportionately within the frame. I experimented with different layouts and styles. I chose to extend the menu across to the next page and tried to create balance with the other photos. I sampled colors from the logo for the title and used the Rasa typeface for the title, as that is what I used for my brand identity, which the article is about.

 

For this article, I decided to cover my hobby of photography. Although I would consider myself a beginner, I still have a love for it and am learning more each day. I got a lot more practice with Lightroom, adjusting levels and curves. I also placed a stroke around the photos to create a cohesive look and aimed to balance both sides of the layout using similar cool colors. 

I truly feel that this has been one of the most challenging projects I have taken on and the one from which I have learned the most so far. As overwhelming as it has been at times, I am grateful for this project because it forced me to revisit areas in which I lacked confidence and improve my skills. Well done, Mr. Williams!
