Response: Meredith Prototypes

My group is rad!

Eat Now had some problems looking cohesive on Tuesday, but after our meeting, we're pulling it all together.  The biggest problem was that one of our departments looked like a feature.  That's changed now.

It's really hard working on designing a food magazine, especially late at night because all I want to do is

EAT...



NOW!

But instead of banana split cupcakes and margaritas, my fridge only ever has yogurt and gatorade.

I really like the big blowout photos we used for the feature.  It looks very professional.  I added some quirky extras, such as the chef hat and moustache on the "Tip" pullout and the icons in the right corner that get eaten throughout the pages.  I know my first designs for the cover were a bit much, but this was my way of making the magazine fun and still something that came across as professional and sellable to the Meredith market.

Here is what I've come up with for the splash page of the feature (minus Nick's two icons for entrees and appetizers) and the desserts and drinks spreads.
