Project Goal: Create a magazine layout and illustrative collage emulating the tones and messages from a TED Talk given by Susan David.
Uplifting, Moving, Powerful, BenevolentThis was a very uplifting and inspirational project. In this TedTalk, Susan Brown explores the ideas of emotional courage and embracing our emotions as they come. She explains her own experience discovering the concept and encourages viewers to acknowledge their true feelings. There's a beauty, grace and power in feeling with authenticity and leaving space for ourselves when it seems the world cannot. I wanted to emulate the opening of the heart I felt when listening to this talk in the collage I designed. I imagined this article to be placed in a health and wellness magazine, so I researched the layouts of current publications in that market. Using the layouts I encountered as inspiration, I selected typefaces and a layout that suited the appeals.
