OUGD405 | STUDIO BRIEF 3 | FINAL PRODUCT

Our booklets had to be stapled and printed in the print room so this restricted me in terms of full bleed. I have included a lot of full bleed images and pages, so I decided to staple and trim it myself.

I chose a thin stock as I didn't want it to look too bulky and firm, I also like the look of work printed on thin, matte paper.

Here is the final publication. I'm really pleased with how it turned out. I wanted some pages to be quite messy and edgy, I didn't really feel the need to use a grid system for this. I think if it was TOO minimal and clean, it wouldn't reflect how chaotic a serial killer's mind is. If I could do this again I think I would have the back page as the cover as it's my favourite, and I think it looks more interesting than the one I chose. I also think the stapling could have possibly been more on the spine but it does give it a bit of an edgy look.. although I'm extremely pleased with my work overall.
