My Communication undergrad thesis entailed the creation and distribution of a zine, a not-for-profit self-publication, that highlights emerging artists and designers in the San Antonio community. Six interviews pertaining to creativity, expression, and community were conducted and transcribed.

 

A 7” x 8.5” 16 page full color booklet was created, printed, and distributed at different local spots. On a broad scale, a goal was to show readers that there are active creative individuals in the community who are collaborating with each other and consequently foster the vibrancy of street life, arts, and people engaging in community activities. More concretely, this project resulted in the creation of a portfolio piece that demonstrates deliberate design decisions that clearly showcase the artist/designers’ work while keeping the audience in mind and satisfying personal aesthetic preferences.

 

You can find a digital copy of the zine here. 

I also created extrospections.tumblr.com as an online space for the zine.
