BEATS: Newcomer Youth Voice + Perspective Magazine

description

BEATS: Newcomer Youth Voice and Perspective is my undergrad project. This is a magazine by and for newcomer immigrant and refugee youth. The magazine is 8.5x11 inch and 36 pages. This was a year long project and many community members and youth got involve directly to this project. BEATS gave me an opportuntiy to play different roles such as a designer, an editor, a art director and a project manager. Though it was a very complex process with the help of Fiona Lemon (copy editor + community facilitator) and Paul Rarick (Photographer + Classmate/peer) I was able to put togather a simple magazine for the newcomer youth and the community. This project was funded by Vancouver base youth group Action Team and was support by my undergrad professor of Emily Carr Deborah L. Shackleton.
