Building on the Zine Exercise

 In week 2 we were given a zine exercise, to fill an entire zine whilst on location. Choosing the things that drew out attention.

I focused on the taxidermied animals, particularly as we were told my the curator that as this was a Victorian collection, it was highly likely that the specimens were killed specifically to be studied. 

Since this I have put together a number of zines; one on location in Knaresborough, one depicting a fictional street scene which I ended up not being a huge fan of as the narrative I envisioned with the characters on the street didn't quite work.

The third one I enjoyed making a lot, a simple colour scheme, with a short, fun rhyming dialog: I Always Walked In The Woods
