Cloning a Magazine to Perfection

For this assignment, we had to find a good, well designed magazine layout and duplicate it so that the audience will be fooled.

Here is the original layout:

Here is my duplicate copy:
As you can see both are extremely similar, except for the images. I had to use different images since I couldn't find the same one. The only difference is the color of the spread. Mine is a lighter gray but overall I think it came out really good.

Learning InDesign

We started learning the basics on InDesign in class. We created a 3 page magazine spread to learn how to place and link images, insert dummy texts, and use shapes.

For some reason I cannot upload the first 2 pages of the spread on the blog, even though it is a .jpg. I'll have to work that out.

Illustrator Final Project

This is my final Illustrator project! I decided to do the alphabet, and this was the most time consuming project I have ever done! I think that from doing this it has given me more experience with working with Illustrator because I had to make 26 images from scratch. I am overall happy with the end result.
