Video Details

The late, great Tibor Kalman once said the three elements of a good story are clarity, forward motion and suspense. In this tutorial, you'll cover the visual storytelling of a feature layout, consider the overall pacing and structure of a story, select and present the best possible images to tell the tale and find out how to give the feature good narrative flow and visual impact. You'll also learn options for creating original dynamic type treatments for the opening spread, and how this will set the tone of the design and carry it through the entire feature.
