Objective
Gain an understanding of how multiple page documents are created and maintained in InDesign. Create good file structure and proper use of InDesign tools & workflow, plus some creative images work & typographic skill use in InDesign to produce a 12-page magazine.
Process
I sketched out rough ideas on paper then refined those sketches in the thumbnail stage to create a best possible layout before setting the digital document for the 6-spread 12-page magazine. I used InDesign, following specific requirements for the document format that’s best for print, to layout our graphics and typography. Using Adobe Illustrator, I was able to make great vector files for the logos that is scalable without loosing any details when I brought those into any software, especially InDesign. Using Photoshop, I was able to comply with those specifications & requirements of the document setting for the bitmap images such as JPEGs & PNGs, converting them to PSD files. I organized my work flow at the very beginning and checked again when exporting final PDF files for the project before handing in my work.

This magazine layout design dives into the innovative world of drones and UAVs, highlighting their cutting-edge applications and future potential. Beyond the print layout, I also created an interactive EPUB and a complementary video to further promote and enhance the content of the magazine. Please check out the sequences I made below.
