TIMELESS
For this one I want to create the timeless feel of a first date or going out and the elegance that used to accompany this type of moment. I want a darker, more formal feel for this zine. I want it to exude elegance and romance. The time period I want to capture is the early 1900s. Kind of a Great Gatspy feel.
Maybe a zine about the Great Gatsby? This one would be fun to do and try to highlight the main points of the story
The war
The parties
Daisy Buchanan
The green light
Jay Gatsby
Reunion
The affair
Car crash
Gatsby's death
Finding the car
Daisy leaving town
Nicks the narrator

This one seems like a fun one to do. It reminds me of ordering at subway. But it's very simple and I think I want to make something a bit more challenging and meaningful.

This idea may be my favorite but it will be difficult to create this type of story with only images and collages. I do like the reality of this idea and I think that it will be interesting to create and put things together to portray this darkness and cynicism. I do think that this storyline will be a challenge.
