Kara's Magazine Project.

So here is my finished product. I decided to do a local music/indie magazine titles "the know." I am really interested in the philadelphia music scene and nightlife and thought this would make for a good magazine. I wanted to keep the style simple yet a little unconventional. I was influenced by the magazine Vice and its typically simple and clean covers. I knew I wanted Man Man on the cover, a growing local band, but initially had a hard time finding a large enough photo to fill the entire background. I gave up and now I like how it only take up a little less than half of the background. Since the photo was so colorful I decided it would be eye catching enough and I should keep the text simple with white. However, I did switch up the font a bit. In the end I decided to make the magazine free and I can totally picture this as an insert in Philly Weekly or on a corner newsbox somewhere. Im really pleased with how it turned out.
