For my zine, i decided on the theme of Metamorphosis,

with the butterfly as my motif.

I wanted to capture the idea of Mental Metamorphosis with

my zine, for the zine to transform and change as the viewer read it.

I planned my zine as an experience rather than Read more →

Final

With the final setup, i added additional particle effects as well as

increasing the contrast and highlights.

For layout, i configured the flowers in a directional manner, similar to

Here is my final print for my zine! Minimalism at its best.

Actually I had trouble coming up with a common theme for my zine because the main topic for it was alcohol.

There wasn’t any inspiration for Read more →

I was pretty clueless about what’s a zine and how it looked like and how to go about doing it, so I went to pinterest to hopefully clear my doubts and pretty much, I found some zines that were interesting to me.
