The initial ideas for ‘La forme feminine’ involved experiments with the layouts. Courtney had already selected all the pictures that she wanted in the zine. The first images are experiments for the front cover. One is inspired by the front cover of Pylot. This is an interesting aesthetic but not the aesthetic that Courtney was hoping for. The other is more clean and simplistic and this is the style that the client decided she wanted the most. The rest of the zine therefore should follow a similar pattern. Courtney knew that she wanted a full bleed image as the middle pages of the zine. The images seen above are two landscape images that worked well as full bleed images. She also wanted a quote about the marvellous somewhere within the zine. This was the only typography that she wanted within the zine. The images for another spread of pages use the typography within the white space on the pages. One uses a whole page for the text which looks nice and follows the clean aesthetic but as the zine is supposed to be about the photography it seemed a waste of a page. The other is inspired by the OE spreads incorporating the typography into the imagery. The type was placed across the body of the horse meaning it was still legible but also worked layered over the photograph.
