Completing Exhibizine! 15/05

 Today was our last day of making Exhibizine. It was a very satisfying feeling finishing off all 15 of these! We coloured in the anchors by hand and checked the zines for bits that needing re-gluing and to check them to see if anything was missing.

 We also decided that we needed extra things to sell/present at the Print and Zine fair. We chose the pages in our zine that translated best into little A6 postcards. I printed them on 250 gsm cartridge paper after scanning the page in and reducing its size. We're aiming to sell these between 50p and £1.

 

We were very proud to have managed to created the zines! We were uncomfortable and not entirely hopeful at the start as it was outside our comfort zone. But I am quite proud of ourselves in the fact we managed to create a visual, surrealist take on our exhibition proposals.

15 finished Exhibizines and the original mock up!

We also decided that we wanted to have a written document discussing why we chose the subjects we wrote about for our hypothetical exhibition proposals. We made a simple 4 page booklet with A6 print off written individually. Hopefully, this is will explain to people why Exhibizine contains the subjects it does.

 After we finished all our zines by hand, we treated ourselves to a well earned cuppa and relaxed whist having a discussion over how to set up our table and things we'd need.
