Alternative design for Publications

• FAUX MAGAZINE COVER
• Copy the layout of the cover of a magazine, but call it something opposite like "OUTSIDE" magazine becomes "INSIDE" or "DOG FANCY magazine becomes   "DOG SLOUCHY" and re-caption the articles that are listed on the cover, keeping them in the same location.  Imagine and articulate what the cover photograph would be an image of. Post these sketches on you blog- if you can photograph your idea, DO IT!

• NEW BOOK COVER
• Take a favorite book, or one you are reading in school and re-make the cover of the book.  Try a variety of ways to create; using cut out letters and images from a magazine and newspaper,  draw or paint over a photograph, cut out paper.  Create the front and back cover, post this on your blog and reflect on the process.

• NEW ALBUM COVER
• Look through the slideshow of Album Art to the right side of this screen.  Make a "new" cover for one of your favorite albums. What is the feel for the album? How can the type support the feeling of the cover.

• NEW PRODUCT PACKAGE
• Take a real product's package that you have finished using like a milk carton, cereal box or soup.   Create a new package either funny or serious for the same product.
