Publication Style/
Entertainer Project

Prompt: Replicate the style of a particular publication and create 2 spreads of a contemporary entertainer or musician. 

I chose the Swedish band Wintergatan (Galaxy) because I believe they are worthy of fame. I chose WIRED Magazine because it is a publication that would likely cover a band that built their own mechanical music machine. I wrote the article and emphasized Wintergatan's love of legos, and music composition and how the combination of the two has brought them success and happiness. The blocks of color evoke European abstract expressionism as well as the legos Wintergatan loves so much. I created movement with the placement of images and text to speak to the lyricality of Wintergatan's music.
