From the course: InDesign: Elements of a Layout
Welcome
- [Voiceover] Hi, I'm Nigel French. Welcome. In this course, we'll examine the elements of a typical magazine layout. We'll deconstruct the different parts, the body text, the heads and sub-heads, the bylines and credits, and the pull quotes and sidebars. We'll consider their purpose, talk about established conventions for how they should look, and ways to format them logically and robustly in Adobe InDesign. Each movie begins with a definition of a particular layout element and examples of how they're used in popular magazines. Starting with an unformatted InDesign document, I'll add the elements one-by-one with a strong emphasis on investing in careful document setup, so that future issues of the magazine can be constructed easily and efficiently. Let's get started.
