Dinosaurs, mostly.: Editorial Design Brief

The body of text;

"The aim of this brief is to identify and solve the problems involved when arranging information (text and visual information) on a page. Magazines require different priorities of elements such as images, headline type, running heads, pull quotes, captions and info boxes. You will examine the concept of the grid and evaluate its usefulness. Text setting for readability and style, decorative elements such as drop caps and rules should be discussed. By the end of the assignment you will be able to identify the different elements and combine them effectively to produce creative and readable layouts.
You are asked to use one of the designers from the list supplied as a basis for the style and possible content of your magazine
You are required to look at methods for production and printing your magazine. You should produce in-depth investigation into the pros and cons of using this method over as opposed to PDF or POD (print on demand) magazines."

What I need to do;

Unit 22 Editorial Design
Research files containing your preparatory notes. In addition you will need to source a text file and images about a leading graphic artist of the 20th century (list attached.) for use in your layouts.
Idea development sheets showing many different layout approaches. Use appropriate and recognised methods to indicate images and grey marker or "greeking in" lines for text areas.
All development work should be presented in a suitable format
A magazine “dummy" comprising of: a contents page, a double page spread followed by a single page editorial plus any other pages you feel enhance your design ideas. The design will show consistency over the pages, showing how selective design elements combined create an overall "look". The article must be about a graphic artist of the 20th century. Produce your page layouts in InDesign, print out and mount on foam core.
