Aperture Magazine Sixty years on
Aperture Magazine Sixty years on Brief
Research & Content
Produce a 60th anniversary publication to be presented with the fall 2012 edition of aperture.
Research for the magazine is mainly secondary for text & imagery, Articles have been selected through various issue’s of Aperture found in the Library and scanned in using a high resolution scanner.
Background
Research for the build of the magazine is mainly primary for things like layout, binding and colour schemes.
This October is the Aperture Foundations 60th Anniversary, They are one of the biggest photography magazines in America and have published hundreds of books & magazines.
Time scale
The magazine contains interviews, biography’s, portfolios and articles. Allow the content to speak through the Type & Layout. Focus closely on the relationship between the photography and the text, allowing the magazine to focus on either when relevant. Consider the physical body of the magazine and how this can aid in the content being received to the reader.
