But today I want you to get familiar with some Editorial Terms which is a must if you are planning to design magazines. We will learn about kickers, stand-firsts, bylines, pull-quotes, and so much more by analysing the work of my favourite Editorial designers and art directors. In additional I will share tutorials on Typography and Compositional techniques that will help you create stunning magazine layouts.

Learn the best practices for editorial design projects. We will mainly be using Adobe InDesign and occasionally switching over to Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. Learn how to design magazines, books, brochures, leaflets and so much more!

Typography plays a crucial role in Editorial Design. An article that you design could include text in the form of a story, interview, opinion etc. so it is pretty vital to make sure the copy you use is easy to follow and understand.

To conclude, Magazine design can be complex, there are tons of terms you need to get familiar with and so many layout rules you need to consider. Don't worry; it does get easier to learn them, the more you practice creating layouts!.

I have created a layout in indesign - where I've put images that go across a double page spread, I want to print using blurb where they require the front and back cover to be uploaded as 2 facing pages on its own, and then the rest of the pages as its own upload.

They require the design to start on page 1 (the singular page at the top - which I have placed my front cover on just for now) but this first page is actually the inside first page so even if I delete it and leave it blank, it breaks my design up by pushing all the pages forward one, if that makes sense?

I don't think the blurb printing service allows me to start the design from page 2 - they state that they require the design to have one page at the beginning and end to be placed on the inside of the front and back cover.

I downloaded the blurb indesign plug in which I want to put my existing design into - but It doesn't make sense to me to have to somehow cut all my double page layout spreads in half and manually put them onto different pages just so it will print properly? Hopefully I've been able to explain this well enough and makes sense to someone?

Most books typically start on a right hand (or recto) page. Rectos should be numbered as odd pages. If you want your book to start with a two-page spread, you'll have to either, as you said, leave p1 blank or add some other content. Normally that first page when you open a book is either the Title or Half-Title page. This means your first spread would occupy pages 2-3.

If the cover is printing on a separate sheet there would have to be 4 pages not 2 ( the cover press sheet has to be folded). So your cover document would include cover, inside cover, inside back cover, and back cover.

Assuming the printer is asking for the front and back cover in a separate document because it will print on a different sheet, the inside cover and inside back cover would also have to be included, even if they are blank.

So the cover set up as a printer spread would have the cover to the right of the spine. When the cover sheet is flipped the inside cover will be on the left with the inside back cover on the right. The inside front and back cover pages shouldn't be included with the interior document, because it is printing on a different paper stock and print run:

@bwiddup : And depending on your numbering system this first page in this document would be named 3 if you count cover and inside cover as pages one and two.You can change the start page number of your document in e.g. Document Setup if you like.

3-column grid: The addition of an extra column allows you to to start creating more dynamic layouts. This grid is great if you have a lot of body copy. You can expand this to a 6-column grid.

From here, we can still push the options further by dropping in different hero or image options. I find that most of my designers skip this step. This takes a minute to duplicate your page a few times and then drop in image options, just using the same layout.

The web technologies we have at our hands today are marvelous. Every day there is something new knocking on our doors. The decision is upon us; we either accept the challenge to learn new things or not. I wanted to pick a design that I can use new CSS techniques and try to grasp them more. For today, I chose a magazine layout with some pretty interesting, challenging design details.

To mark it up correctly in HTML, the first thing I did is that I skimmed all the content. For me, it reads like an article with a title and a description paragraph. I imagined it like the below design mockup.

Initially, I defined two CSS variables for the width and weight of the font. Then, I used them to define font-variation-settings for the number. Here is a great introduction about variable fonts if you are curious.

A student came to see me today, debating on how she should be presenting her page layout work to apply in a very selective B.A. in graphic design. I have a lot of page layout work in my portfolio, magazines, books, brochures, etc. and I have struggled with this as well.

3D mockups are better, but finding the right fit gets complicated and doesn't show the texture of the paper(s) used. Also, the admission committee who views portfolio probably sees the same templates constantly so I wouldn't be surprised they would get annoyed by them after a while.

What other options are there out there to present spreads inside multi-page work that look good and involve seeing the object (i.e. not just a flat file)? I'm specifically looking for a compromise between a professional look where the layout is emphasized and a reasonable amount of effort.

If I'm correctly understanding the goal here, I would create a 3D mockup and present that along with the flat layout (probably each on their own page so they don't fight for the viewer's attention) and that way both the design in its "pure" form and its final realized form can be appreciated.

If starting with 3D data presents too much of a learning curve for the project's timeframe another option would be to start with a professional looking stock photo of an open book and impose the layout onto it in Photoshop using the Warp tool or in Illustrator using Mesh Warp.

Live surface was one of the early publishers that started this 'trend' with blank mockups for everything. There are now loads of ready-made stock images around, or you can build your own 3d scenes if you can use the software. Then you can use Photoshop's Warp feature or 3d software directly to apply artwork to the curved surfaces.

I don't think you need to show entire spreads. I think too often portfolios start to focus on the minutia when really its the global design sense that is being investigated. Few will really care what that last third of the left side in a spread looks like if they see the right side and 2/3rds of the left side.. or what the back cover of a piece looks like if they see the front cover. What is being most often examined is a sense of size, balance, space, proximity, color, etc. Showing these aspects is far more important to me than showing what that top right corner of a spread looks like. I try and remember that portfolio reviewers, for the most part, are conceptual people. They can extrapolate some things given only some information. And if they aren't conceptual in nature, no amount of visible detail is going to overcome that to a degree.

I look at the portfolio as a "tease". I want others to want to see more. So, I purposefully create portfolio images which show the overall design but not necessarily everything. Remember the function... to get you a call back or to have the viewer reach out to you. So, leaving them wanting more is a good plan to help facilitate that.
