Parallel Magazine

For the past six or seven months I have been working for an independent publication entitled Parallel magazine. Created by a team of all female-identifying creatives and writers, Parallel focuses on social topics, including women's equality issues, within the arts, music, film and literature. During my time so far at LCA I have been lucky enough to continue my work with them, specifically editing and organising page layouts. I have found that being at LCA has helped me particularly with this independent work, as I have leant a lot about publication design, text layout and grid systems. This experience has also been invaluable in helping me understand the importance of roles and communication when working in a team, particularly when the members of this team live all over the world. A selection of the layouts that I have worked on are featured below:
