First of all thanks for at least clicking on this! From the thread title you have clicked hoping to be able to offer some help! Thanks for that!
For my friend for her birthday I have bought her the Vogue (magazine) from the month and year of her birth.
I am attempting to create an article filled with messages and pictures from all her friends that I aim to slip into the magazine as though it came off the original print run.
I have access to both photoshop and illustrator and reckon I will be able to do the basic layout and text organising within those. The magazine is over 19 years old so the layout is fairly basic and should be easy to replicate for my fake section.
I then aim to try and get it printed on, or as similar to, magazine paper as I can.
Does anyone have any tips for the layout? I will probably be creating a 6-8 page insert and this will be my first venture into layout design so any help would be great.
Does anyone have any tips on the printing? Do I go to a company and get a quote or is there a type of paper I can get that is close to magazine quality? I would need to print double sided to so that would have to be taken into account.
Basically any information that may help would be useful as google isnt being as useful as normal for this project!
Thanks
