As for this project I'm creating a 'zine I decided to look at the art in other zines.

Something I noticed when looking at zines is that there's an amateurish rawness to the work. Everything seems to be done by hand. This is probably because zines have a large background in the DIY punk scene and a lot of the values of imperfections and almost anti-professionalism have traces in the zines of today. I like the look and feel of this style and want my pages of the zine to reflect this. I'll try to do this by doing a lot of the writing by hand and keeping the pictures as untreated as possible.
I also noticed a lack of colour in a lot of the zines I've looked at. I would guess this is to do with saving money on printing costs. This is something my group could think about when printing and I think I may keep my pages in black and white to try and get that zine authentic zine look that I'm aiming for.
