Ok, I’m going to let the cat out of the bag. I’m starting a magazine, well an e-zine to be technically correct.
Each issue will feature a single creative in their creative space and run 10-15 pages. While you’ll probably see a few finished pieces the focus is to document their creative process and spaces.
Each issue will have an accompanying interview, a DIY craft tutorial and look book, it’s part The Selby part Design Sponge.
Today I got to shoot the first issue with Heather Moore of Skinny LaMinx at her studio and got to be a fly on the wall, well better than a fly because I received a cuppa tea and biscuits and there wasn’t a flyswatter in sight.
Above are a few off camera shots. I shot 180 frames, whittled it down to 87 and from that will probably feature 15-20 in the mag, whew.
I’m shooting, writing, designing and publishing it so bear with me, though I’m hoping to have the first issue out mid-August and then every two month thereafter.
Great idea Matt! And Heather is the perfect creative to begin with..can’t wait to see/read/absorb it.
I recently did an online course & one of the lessons was the how-to’s of creating e-mags. My brain has been on creative overdrive ever since imagining all the possibilities!
All the best,
Megan
Thanks Megan! Intrigued by the course you did, I’m doing this by trial and error!
Fantastic! can’t wait to see it 🙂
Thanks Louise! I look forward to sharing it.
