Programme
An introduction to seminal tools and many important ideas within the technological development of editorial design, and an exploration into ways of prototyping digital assignments without being UX or programming savvy.
Production, presentation, distribution, etc., the advent of new media techniques has had a significant impact on the ways photography and other imagery can be used to tell stories. Visual Narratives explores alternative approaches to the use of photography within digital editorial concepts.
Thinking outside the scope of any one particular digital platform, Future Interactions aims to rethink the anatomy of digital editorial design, and to explore new user experiences and ways of interacting with content.
Digital editorial design can not escape its printed history; although we are free from the constraints of the page, we are still tied to some standards and hierarchies. Bridging Conventions looks at approaches to editorial design that call into question the print-to-digital transition.
Content management systems, databases, and scalability have revolutionised the computing landscape. But these technologies and ideas don’t need to be exiled exclusively to the tech world. In Digital Tailoring we examine how a digital platform can be adopted for specific needs and can evolve smoothly over time in order support editorial design and content, rather than work against it.
