What You Will Learn?

  • Zines are short run, individualized, self published works that often feature unconventional subject matter; they can take many forms, from manifestos to comics to collections of photographs and even wildly experimental design and concepts.  In this class, we cover strategies for designing your zine, even if you've never made one before.  We break it down zines by genre and I show you some design tips, both digital and analogue, to help you get started.  .
  • I’ll take you through my own process putting together a zine start to finish, and we’ll explore some other topics including color separations in photoshop and a screen print look on a self service copy machine for that authentic 70s punk zine look.  We’ve got a lot to cover so let’s get started!.
