I focused on rhino poaching. While researching I found out that most of the poaching happens in South Africa so I based my zine on this location. The reason why I created a zine is that I wanted to make people aware of how serious this problem is but in an engaging way; creating a zine allowed me to fulfil the project brief as it is is a clear way to convey a story or information within a series of images. While researching zines a graphic designer David Carson influenced my work, I tried to experiment with his style with experimenting with the type. I did this by using the warping and distortion tool on Procreate. This gave an effect where some of the text cannot be as easily read, but that’s what I found fascinating in Carson’s work, you cannot read his work clearly but you know what he’s trying to portray.
