I discovered David's work over browsing through Instagram. I hit him up over Instagram message to see if he would be interested in the project, which he was! I received the photographs after I sent my magazine to print, although I still wanted to feature his work.
I have already been thinking about Issue 02 of Spectrum which I will be continuing on, the theme will be surrounded by the idea of masculinity and femininity in males.
As a teaser for the next issue I included A5 poster teaser of the next issue, using the same fonts and with a different layout theme in comparison to Issue 01.
The paper was printed on a rough textured paper to test out the paper texture theory I have previously blogged about. It is basically a theory that suggests texture in objects e.g. paper, can hold masculine and feminine properties. From research I have discovered
masculine - rough, textured
feminine - soft, thin, delicate
gender neutral - properties of both
I chose to print of the gender neutral style paper, which consists of 130gms weight (reference to feminine) and a slightly textured finish (reference to masculine).
