26. Layout design

The moment to bring your magazine to life, this is it. You've put so much energy and attention into all the ideas and imagined how it will look like. You have all the elements you need, just need to put them together - combine images, with texts written in well chosen fonts, add in graphical elements and brand identity details.

Document the whole process step by step by taking screenshots regularly. Explain for each screenshot what and why you did that particular editing.

As you may already know, the editing process can be a very messy one, at least in the beginning. Allow yourself to try out different things, do not settle with the first idea or attempt. especially in digital work there is no way of breaking things or getting to a point of no return, you can always undo :) or just doing it again in a different way from scratch.

These being said, enjoy the process and seeing your ideas come to life!
