A magazine follows a format of columns and flowlines, establishing a pattern, that then becomes easier to break creating contrast. Trash Brat is a magazine created as a news article pop punk update on the bands playing at When We Were Young music Festival. Incorporated into the magazines are news articles about the bands along with advertisements on the sponsors that are endorsing the festival.
The magazine is designed to emulate the pop punk aesthetic; it embraces a postmodern style and aligns with the readers who are expecting a magazine in the style of a When We Were Young alien punk music festival. This specific project is designed to match the style of a pop punk music festival. While for other magazines, a clean layout with clear imagery would be best, this magazine leans into the creative styling of its readers.
