Scouting For Nerds

Designed & produced for a university project.

I was tasked to design and create three identical A5 Zines, each paired and packaged with an accompanying poster. It was important to choose a subject that inspired me, I was told that mainstream topics have likely to have been done before, with better resources and more time, so I was to choose an unusual, unlikely subject.

Concept

I decided that I wanted to do my zine on scouting because I have been a part of the organisation since I was about seven. Scouting has been a huge part of my life and one of the largest contributing factors to my personality and who I am today. With my zine, I want to celebrate Scouting and its importance to young people and how it has been important to me.

The zine targets people between the ages of 25 and 60, those who volunteer as part of the organisation or those who might be interested in getting involved. It primarily targets a male audience as in my experience I have found that most volunteers tend to be male and tend to have a job working in computing.
