Zine

Zines

I learnt that creating that you can create a zine about anything. I found this fun as I could let my imagination run away with me. I learnt that zines were  created for small press about anything that interests you. Below I posted the dictionary definition of zines.
'zine or zine (zin) 
n.
1. an individualistic, small-circulation magazine typically produced cheaply by a single nonprofessional enthusiast.
2. such a magazine existing on the World Wide Web.

Manual


Manual


 
A manual is an instruction sheet giving you advice in a simple methodical way. We did this to inform people how to make your very own personal sketchbook. This is a fun way of informing people without being dull e.g. a boring washing machine manual. First of all we hand sketched and inked our own drawing and texts. This was to make it our own and a fabulous chance to get arty and creative!! The result is the above accordion style booklet! I learnt to enhance my graphics skills, both traditionally and digitally, to create a fun piece of work.

Book Binding


I enjoyed making the sketchbook. I didn't have any problems  and I was very satisfied with the final piece. I love the colours and the technique.
