Course Description

Overview

Hi! My name is Amaya and I'm an artist & video creator!

Zines are a creative and fun way to share your ideas and thoughts with the world. Like all art and media, zines can be anything and everything. They are a collection of artwork, photographs, poetry, magazine clippings, and much more. 

There are many ways to make zines, but the one I'm going to teach in this class is one of the easiest and quickest - this way you can follow along while watching. You'll learn all about zines, what they're used for, and then I'll show you how to copy and print your zine to share with others.

Lessons include:

  • A brief history of zines
  • An overview of all materials needed
  • Creating the structure of the zine
  • Sketching and painting your zine
  • Scanning and printing the zine

If you have any questions at all, be sure to ask me in the discussions page!
