Kinetic Force

Drawing up the table of contents (TOC) was quick and easy, as my piece was heavily inspired by WDW Magazine's TOC. Actually morphing it into reality was where the trouble was. I did change one of the pictures, like I said in my last post, but the layout stayed the same. I even kept most of the titles and page numbers from the mock-up. The hardest part was making it so that the captions on the pictures were in a place that would not obscure the main image. After trial and error, I found the perfect place for the text that held the caption in the trusty, modern Biko font.

Like I had done with my feature spread, I put a blood splatter in the back to give it a pop of color and to coincide with the spooky Halloween theme. To keep with the
