DESIGNING THE LAYOUT
The finished design consists of 12 spreads, including the front and back covers. There are a total of 4 characters, each with their own spread explaining a bit about who they are, along with some details of what they carry in their backpack and a playlist of their favorite songs. The comic book is meant to be read from left to right, similar to Western comics.
Book Cover
It is often said not to judge a book by its cover, but let's be honest, everyone does, especially teens. When deciding on the cover for Y.O.L.O, I wanted to design one that would catch your eye. I achieved this by having the book appear to look at you.
