Editorial : magazine




Here is my third editorial developement. Actually, I do not know well what is the easiest way to reach creative and effective editorial output. I really want to figure out editorial and typography things. It is not easy to me though.

My story is about Sexual Identity and I found there is cultural different background to Asian people. So, they want to stay silent about their sexuality. And their identity comes largely from family ties and marriage, rather than the individual expressions of identity.

So, I tried to mention that 'Hidden Truth' that described asian have their passive sexual identity because of cultural background. So, I want to tell about this fact. At this point, Hidden's object can be a hidden their identity or our innocent about this fact.

I tried to get the hidden image which is not clear one. And I designed some features. Here is some better ones.

okay.

much better than last week.

we must help you write a better subhed.

i'll try to think of how to write it before class.

and, we can talk about it in class.

like your photo choices.

good.

like the bubble on the first layout.

speaking but not saying...

right?

fit your drop cap into the space better.

you may have to set the drop cap separately and place in.

but, indesign should wrap well.

give it a try.

also, the third layout shows the best choice for subhed type.

but, try using the text face larger.

the size you're using it for the subheds you have in there.

also, try a few more headline faces.

these aren't quite working.

they're not terrible.

they're just not brilliant.

we want brilliant, right?

re the jump spread:

don't use a drop cap at the top of the column.

it signals the reader to begin the story there.

but, you've already begun on the opener.

and, don't repeat the headline.

you don't next type on the image.

it's good as it is.

also, this is a feature, so you don't need rubrics.

those are for departments and columns.

okay?

good.
