Title Magazine
I worked on this project as a Project Manager and Senior Designer with Lindsey Barnett and Sam DiMauro for Issue 08 of Title Magazine. The project I created for the issue was called Forgotten and discusses how Alzheimer’s disease can affect someone’s perception of time and their own memories.
My role as project manager included developing the project concept and overseeing the visual and written aesthetics. For my role as a senior designer, I was in charge of the layout, photography, typography, and word mark for the project. My biggest responsibility as a Project Manager and Senior Designer was to make sure the design team met all the print and digital deadlines and felt like they had a clear understanding about the project’s design direction.

Photography
For the photography we used family photos from members of the design team’s families. These photos were then distorted and given a cyanotype effect to give the impression of forgotten or fading memories. To take this further, we also layered handwritten notes like dates, special times, and some I love yous we found on the back of the photographs onto the spreads.
Typography
To create a sense of fragmented and fading memories, I decided to distort the typography through experimental leading and tracking. I also gave the type a slight blur effect to help it bleed into the background. The gaps in the type create a sense that something is missing or fading away, which ties back to the project’s themes of distorted and forgotten memories.
