UFO Book
Re-design a large body of content into a digestible format, while understanding the grid, and defining reader relationships.
Audience:
Anyone interested in aliens.
Insight discovered during the process:
I designed a textbook-style publication, as I knew it was the way to go because the informative nature of the UFO content read like a textbook. The layout also helped the navigational elements stand out. Not only was this about designing a large body of content into a digestible format, but it also played a key role in helping to distinguish deadlines, and create to-do lists and schedules for project management.
What I learned:
This was a testament in learning InDesign. Designing this 300 + page document required the use of stylesheets for large bodies of text and also creating many table formats/designs within InDesign. I learned to trust my design intuition—as COVID quarantine made this project challenging because spreads were not as often looked at, and design choices became gut decisions.
