The Collective Magazine

Project details

A collection of work I have done for The Collective Magazine, a student run arts magazine on UIUC's campus. My work for The Collective ranges from social media posts to posters to, for the past school year, creative direction over the magazine.

Social Media Posts:

Creative Direction

For the past school year, I have had the privilege of being the Co-Director of The Collective Magazine's graphic design team. I co-lead a team of 15-20 designers that all work on the visual elements of the magazine. A large part of this role is creative direction, encouraging my team and their ideas, and delegating tasks and making sure people stay on top of their tasks.

With the goal of raising brand awareness, we focused on creating a video with a strong hook and entertaining story.
