Zine Design

A zine is a small-circulation self-published booklet, traditionally photocopied and hand-folded, that gives you total editorial control with almost no budget. This course teaches the real craft: page-count and signature maths, imposition so the pages land in order after folding, editorial pacing across spreads, the high-contrast photocopy aesthetic, accurate DIY print specs, and hand-binding with a long-arm stapler or pamphlet stitch. You then price an edition, list it on Etsy, approach distros and table at a zine fest, leaving with a finished, sellable zine and a plan to print the next one.
