Interview: Hirano Kokoro Ch.

Program: Adobe Illustrator (layout & design), Adobe Photoshop (artwork bg removal) Role: Designer

I was inspired by sports manga panels when I learned that Roro was a Hockey vtuber so that's the theme I went with for this spread. I looked at some Haikyuu! manga panels to see how the mangaka would emphasize heavy action panels and applied a few of those ideas here such as the diagonal speed lines in the bg of the first Roro image.

It would be a disservice if I didn't mention that in an original draft of this, the deco elements (exclamation marks, stars) were not coloured and in fact standard black and white in order to push the "manga panel" theme, but when sharing with the Acapella team, they wanted to see what it would look like with colour which resulted in a much more put-together version that better worked with Roro's visuals that we ultimately went with it. Shoutout to the Acapella Media staff!! Couldn't have done it without y'all <3

Article: Oshi Conbini / Lunalia Anniversary

Program: Adobe Illustrator Role: Designer

For this one, it was a bit of a last minute request and I was never supposed to design it this much but I ended up getting a bit carried away haha! With Oshi's article, this was easy as I pulled major inspo from their insta posts. Background, colour palette, it was easy to adapt the page to their branding. I originally had the idea of the quotes looking like insta comments but quickly realized that simple was best so I ended up opting for a simple border and solid red dropshadow.

One thing that was mentioned as feedback -- and that I now know I should have spent a little bit more time finessing -- is the column distinction, because I totally get how some people may first perceive it as sort of a Left, Right, Left, Right sort of orientation instead of a Left Column, Right Column sort of direction. I plan on taking the lessons I learned from this page onto future pages and take more care in making that distinction a little more easier to follow.

With Lunalia, I drew inspiration from the V4Mirai website that has an interesting techy green colour against a dark grey backdrop that made me lean towards a more techy, digital theme. If I had a chance to make one final change, I'd probably try to add some sort of techy background pattern or design as I realize now it feels a bit empty in that aspect. Oh well!

---------------------------------------

All in all, I'm so happy and grateful to have been part of this wonderful project and hope everyone can look forward to more posts from me as I use this place as a way to do a bit of a post-recap of the design process. There are two more articles in particular that I can't wait to post and speak about more (Roro's was one of them, so I'm glad I can talk about it here hehe), but until that gets released, it'll be hush hush from me 🙊

Please look forward to more editions from Acapella Media, as well as these recap posts. Do you guys like these? I hope they're informative to someone out there...

Anyway, that's it from me for now~

Go read the magazine!!
