Preparing to print I have been taking some more time into really studying and understanding industry practice and layouts. The layout is proving to be such a crucial part of the book itself so I have been researching and looking into the best way to show and display my imagery in and industry quality way.
Looking at the June issue of British Vogue and their most recent Jewellery Editorial shoot for inspirations;
(Vogue,2019)
In doing so, I was also inspired by the advertisements within the pages and the way the images had used 3/4 of the spread to create a really good use of negative space.
In a recent tour of the British Vogue offices, I was able to look around what the picture desk and the art editing team- in doing so I noticed on indesign how they were using the programme and grids upon the programme to finalise their layers and layouts and this inspired me to do the same within my work;
For example, here I have used grids in indesign to help me align writing and imagery as well as providing a 3mm bleed across the programme to make the document industry and print ready.
Taking inspiration from industry practice should really help me make sure everything about my documents and layouts are polished and presentable, and not only this- has really helped me get into the mind set of my dream career and align my skill set to such.
