When I tell people that I'm a magazine designer, their first response is "Wow!" The second is usually "Anything I might've seen?"
The third question happens after they think about it. "So, what does that mean?" I tell them, very briefly, that basically it means decided which pictures to use and where to place them and what size, where the copy will flow and how the headline will be treated, while making sure it all conforms to the magazine style.
On a weekly, this is usually under pressure. A few variations are usually produced before a layout is settled upon. Watch the video below and enjoy the many variations of a feature story on Chinese food for the September 2008 issue of Men’s Health magazine. I'm not sure how many people worked on the layouts or the timescale.
Thanks for ur post.
