I've been experimenting with layout!
and these are my final decision! :D (I have a final decision finally!)
note: each life style has a master page!
concept: Menial jobs make big difference
my idea was to show a sequence of images of what those five different life styles go through everyday...I also treated each spread as a screen...so it wouldn't be static images and text only!
so each spread will continue the next spread > the idea of active jobs, movements...of those lifestyles!
I hope that makes sense to you -_-
here's how my final decision layout >















































haven't updated for ages :( I've never been THAT lost in the whole history of me being at VCUQ :P...but it's okay, I'm trying to keep up! "just stay positive" as fatoom alremaihi says! :D

so today we went to AlDoha printing press...

we saw the whole process of printing a book, poster, bussiness cards ... etc

printing main stages:
pre-press (color proof..etc)
printing (films, plates...etc)
post-press (binding, stitching, uv, lamination...etc)

pictures are NOT in order!!!

Project2_TypeWorkshop



















We were in DESPERATE need for a type workshop! so Pornprapha decided to give us a basic typography workshop.
We were asked to replace simple shapes (square, line and dots) with type, without losing the essence of the shape. We had to conceder negative, positive space, composition, layout...etc
