OUGD405 (Studio brief 3) Page Layout

Studio Brief 03 - Page Layout (InDesign)

Brief

Based upon your given research theme: Use Adobe Indesign to put together 5 double page spreads, one for each the five areas you have researched. 20 FACTS 20 OPINIONS 20 WORDS 20 STATISTICS 20 PHOTOGRAPHS The content should be specific to your own interests in the area you have researched. Your choice of layout, type and size should be informed rather than arbitrary.

Background / Considerations

You should research page layout design and grid systems. You should look at publications including magazines, books, leaflets etc.

For this brief, we are instructed to compile our research from the previous brief, my subject matter being music, and create a 5 double page spread displaying the 20 facts, 20 opinions, 20 words, 20 statistics and 20 photographs that we collected. 

To begin this brief, I will research into existing double page spread layouts, and aso grid systems. Page layouts can be found anywhere, I could look at magazines and leaflets for examples. The compositional features will be a significant part when researching and eventually designing my own layouts.

To correlate with my existing research, I could also look at advertisements within the music industry and how they advertise the specific brands and music labels.
