Cover Design

I was inspired by a vintage sweatshirt my best friend bought at the American Thrift Store. I think its clean and classy just like the University of Georgia. Go Dawgs.

Celebrating Courage Cover

I am a sucker for old black and white photographs and nostalgia, in general. That is the reason why I felt compelled to utilize all of the photographs at our disposal. The photos can speak for themselves outside of my limited InDesign abilities. When Hunter and holmes first came to the campus, everything was kind of overwhelming for them, so it seemed like a very "busy" photo collage was a good route to go. That's about as deep as I'm going to get. The bottom line is that I like old photographs and that's why I used all of them. Cheers.

Cover Design

While I was designing this, I was half thinking about the cover and half complaining to Devin that I don't have the creative side of the brain. At all. So this is my futile attempt at a cover design. I used the big picture on the bottom because I liked the arch in the background, but mostly because it was the only one big enough to be displayed that big without being stretched. 

This is a Cover and These Are Some Words.

So I love shapes, and all my InDesign designs tend to be really geometric. Thus, all the rectangle-y lines, etc. I could justify it by explaining that the white spaces guides the reader's eye between Hunter, Holmes, and the people who would expel them, a metaphor for their own alienation, but that'd be far too deep for my process.

Mostly I just liked the shapes.

I like things to be proportional.

Magazine Cover

I chose this design because I wanted to keep it clean and simple. I chose these images because I think they are powerful and portray the feeling that we want. I wanted to show a variety of things involving desegregation and the contrast between Holmes being protected by people in the upper right image to their graduation from the University.
