Making the zine was the first project we were set this year, it was also the only project in which we had to collaborate and work as a group. Our zine was called 'We are here - Landmarks through Leeds' and it was a mini pocket guide showing some of the iconic landmarks dotted around the city. The project was rather challenging as we all had different ideas, we had only just met each other and everyone was being polite and nice. This made decision making hard as there were hardly any unanimous decisions, in the end zine itself ended up being a nice way for us to explore Leeds as a new city and as outsiders learning its layout.
I liked the zine, we all contributed different styles to the mix, making it a bit more of an obvious team effort, it worked as we had intended it and was pretty self explanatory. The only bad thing was that there were not enough facts and information about certain places.
Here are my pages of the zine:
This illustration is of the bronze statue hands in the Nelson Mandela gardens, it was my favourite contribution towards the zine.
