InDesign Basics for Photobooks and Zines
Learn the basics of InDesign — today’s most popular layout tool — and design your own book or zine. This class is for students who are new to InDesign or want a refresher on the basics. In this 4-session class, we’ll cover step-by-step instructions on workflow; how best to plan and setup a project; how to understand the menus and workspace and use the basic tools; prepare, import and resize photos; work with text and fonts; and how to export your document. In weekly assignments, students will practice and work on their projects. We’ll also look at a variety of zines and photobooks for design inspiration and discuss different design ideas and developing a concept for your specific story. By the end of class, you’ll have a basic layout of your book or zine. This class is limited to only 6 students.
