Experimental Typograhy

So, a new year and a new brief...so to start with some experimental compositions made using bits and pieces from the 'Radio Times'. With my layouts I wanted to create designs that were away from what we are used to seeing in magazines, to attract attention and make the reader think 'Yeah, i want to read that'...

I then moved on to creating A3 layouts using a specific grid, I found this task to be more challenging, as the grid restricted some of the ideas I had. I quite enjoyed this short task as it really got my mind thinking about good composition and making effective choices in relation to allignment and typeface.
