Angela Riechers, design lecturer and former art director of Harper's Magazine as well as other major publications, guides you through the process of creating the "design voice" of a brand-new publication from start to finish. Working within Adobe InDesign, she demonstrates how typeface, layout, color palette, photographs/illustrations, and other visual elements can be fused into a multilayered yet organic sensibility. She also reveals her personal post-design protocol, including spot-checking as well as preparing files for printing and/or uploading.
