Editorial Design Process: Making a Coffee Table Book
In this video, I take you behind the scenes of my creative process for designing a coffee table book dedicated to the art of film shots. From initial concept and planning to layout design and final touches, I’ll walk you through each step of bringing this project to life. You’ll get an inside look at how I crafted pages on iconic shots like the low angle, bird’s eye view, and extreme close-up, and how each choice helps to convey the story visually. Whether you're interested in design, film, or the intersection of the two, join me as I explore what it takes to turn a concept into a tangible, visual experience.

    Personally I feel like you could've pushed "wide angle" spread a bit further. Like dutch angle and bird's eye view and others - you see the message in photography and in the layout itself, and in wide angle spread I feel like it's not presented as much. Like it's a good layout, but it differes from the others in my opinion. But I'm a newbie anyway, so I don't know for sure, it's just my feeling Overall I think it's a great work and pages are really interesting to look at!

      I think it has very specific strengths that are very nuanced. Typography being one of those. I think PS and AI are much stronger tools for creating unique looks so they tend to get more attention. But, when you need to do a multi-page layout with lots of type, Indesign wins out. Even if it's not as flashy

      Color space could be an issue. Make sure your project is in RGB not CYMK. It could also be the bit-depth. It has to be 8-bit. Both of these are located in the 'Image' section at the very top of the program. Give those a check and see if those are your problems!

    Thank you so much for this video, it's so helpful! Like you said a lot of times it seems great logos appear just out of nowhere like magic, but seeing your process helps to see that there's actually logic there. And I like how you're being outspoken about that there are logos that are more "acceptable" by investors or whatever (not like it's bad) and there are logos which really pushes design and creativity and we can appreaciate it, but in reality it's not so easy to bring them to life. I'm currently binge watching your videos, such a good quality, like cinematography, different angles of the camera, pacing, timing - it's clear you put a lot of effort in it. So thank you so much for sharing very useful information in a format that's so enjoyable to watch!

    • @Collect_Contrast
      @Collect_Contrast 11 дней назад

      Thank you so much for this kind comment! So glad you like my videos and are able to get some use out of them! And on RUclips, there are so many videos where they speak so plainly on logo creation. "You take this word and this word and combine them together! It's that simple." But they don't show the 50 iterations it took to get to that design. If we only show the highlights, we only end up discouraging people. That's why I try my best to show the entire process. That includes the failures and everything in-between.

    • @Alina-fg5by
      @Alina-fg5by 11 дней назад

      @Collect_Contrast Exactly! Like your process here seems so much closer to reality, that some ideas seem great in the head, but actually don't work out in the end, or some idea which seems weird at first can actually develop into something interesting ect. So yeah, thank you for showing it how it is! Looking forward for your next videos!

    • @Collect_Contrast
      @Collect_Contrast 17 дней назад

      I wish I could offer some good advice, but I'm no 'prompt' expert. I try to feed chatgpt as much info as I can and then just treat it as a conversation. Most responses won't be great, so it's all about go back and forth enough times for it to get a better understanding of what you need or are looking for over time. I guess a decent starting point would be "I want to make a visual identity for a company in X market. Can you quickly create 5 fake companies that I could possible use for this project?" Hope this is at least some what helpful!

      I have a second video that explains my logo process in more detail. That could help! But's what I would do if starting out 1. Learn what makes a good logo. There are lots of great videos on youtube about that. 2. Pick apart logos that you love. How were they made? Why do you like them? Are their any particular details that stand out? etc. 3. Make a logo. And then make another. And another. Do it over and over again. You can't become good at something you never do! Probably not the most detailed answer, but hopefully that gives you enough as a starting point!
