PULP
For my final project in Principles of Marketing & Branding this semester in grad school, we had to create a new media property and develop a marketing plan for it. We created PULP, a “green” magazine with style that’s for the general public more so than it is a stuffy little scientifically-written, difficult-to-get-through little “green”-focused magazine like the VERY few others that currently exist. Today, I made a cover for it. This is what it looks like:
I’ve decided this will also be my capstone project for next semester, the final course required for me to get my Master’s in Publishing next May, in which I basically do a far more in-depth, expanded version of what we did this week for Marketing.
I, personally, am DARN proud of this cover and am entirely in love with the idea of this magazine. Like it?

I really, really like it. My only suggestion would be to fix the kerning of the logo, PULP. Granted, there had to be space in between U and L to make room for Natalie Portman’s face… unless the logo will always have a space in between U and L. The logo/name of the magazine is one thing that should never change on the cover, besides the color, perhaps (a la Rolling Stone, Nylon). The SPIN logo is always in the top left corner of the cover, sometimes slightly covered by whoever/whatever is the feature that issue.
GREAT use of the Nylon website font, I really like that typeface. Great great great job; I’d actually love to read this magazine! :}

[…] And if you’re really, really interested, I made up a mock cover a little while back of the kind of magazine I’m imagining. Any feedback on it or the concept whatsoever would be awesome! You can check it out on my other blog here. […]
