This week, we focused a lot on our zine cover ideas and critique for them. It was really fun getting to talk to my group about our individual ideas and how we could merge each thought. Everyone in my group has pretty similar ideas but with a personalized twist that has made us work even better as a whole. We all have ideas, that we know, could work together. My first draft of the zine was really rushed because I forgot to do it so I didn’t have time to actually get it done. I did though, take that critique and tried implementing it into my second draft. My second draft was much, much better. I spent quite some time working on it and getting it to look as I wished. I had an idea of making it very simple, yet informative about what would be inside. My zine page includes light colors with a contrast of two bold colors in the center of the page, as well as a flower to symbolize things like beauty and growth.
After getting critique for our first draft and working on our second draft, we were able to present as a group and get individual critique from Luisa (from MCASD). It was interesting getting to do a different process for critique. We usually go through the “Kind, Specific, & Helpful” route, but this time we dove into something more interesting. Our critique sheets had specific questions about certain elements of our zine covers that allowed us to give more useful critique. These questions included how eye-catching our cover was, what message we got through it, and how we could reach out to others in order to make it better.
