EGM Gaming Magazine

Roles: Graphic Designer, Editor, Copywriter
Goal
To redesign a magazine and its cover. Select 12 pages off of a magazine of your choice and update it's design. The cover of the magazine is counted for a separate project as well.
Approach
I wanted to transform an old EGM magazine into something colorful and modern, as well as making the magazine easier to navigate and read. The original had so much content in it, that filing and reorganizing became a priority as well. One of the biggest things the magazine talked about was the introduction of Legend of Zelda: Windwaker, which was the first in the franchise to feature a 3D atmosphere and was one of the first to boast about it's graphics as well. This led me to present the best of what the game's graphics had to offer in showcasing wide, sweeping landscapes whenever I could, ultilizing the updated graphics.
