ROLE: As Graphic Designer on a 12-person editorial team, I helped produce eight monthly issues of The Navigator after its rebrand from a bi-weekly newspaper to a monthly zine, designing and preparing 22 pages for print. Working closely with editors, I laid out stories and artwork, followed the new brand guidelines, and created or sourced additional content to ensure every issue was production-ready.
OBJECTIVE: Our goal was to produce a new issue every month while introducing a complete redesign that transformed The Navigator from a traditional newspaper into a magazine-style publication. The refreshed format modernized the brand, helping shift its appeal beyond its long-time VIU staff readership to a new generation of students.
