Project 6 - A disaster waiting to happen

This is my A4 two spot colour 8 page catalogue I created with Jason copping.
The disaster is that there is a full scale zombie apocalypse and the future of mankind is at stake. If all is lost man kind will cease to exist. This catalogue has everything you need to know/learn in order to survive and understand what is happening/soon to happen if you are not careful.

We decided to go for A4 as this suited its purpose best, like a leaflet layout. The layout itself was rather tricky to design around but helped create the piece of work into to its own style. Same with the images, the fact that we were limited two spot color (duo-tones for images) only, it made for something unique to be created. As I was not sure of how it looked we stuck to the brief and in the end we are happy with the results as it now has its own unique style which can be associated with our work.

The colors we choose are black and red because 'zombies' are usually associated with dark, suffering and misery(black color), along with blood, danger and fear (red color).

The pages may look muddled up but fear not that this is what we had to deal with during the In design process/ we had to take this into consideration so when we go to actually print and create this it all comes together in working order as it should.

The ZDAY Disaster update!

21/02/2013

Important update! the survivors who wrote out the Zday survival guide have gone missing and are no where to be located. Hence in reading their guide do not go to their location I repeat do not go to their location they have been compromised. Just remember the basics they have taught you within their guide to survive this epidemic, and also use your common sense and you shall survive long enough for a rescue(hopefully). Do not come to my location either I myself am struggling to survive in my location which I am not going to disclose for yours and my safety.

As of now we have lost all telecommunication to the outside world and looks like our little island is doomed, England and its surrounding countries well soon be perished unless we get rescued or someone is able to find a cure. As of now we have no idea if anyone even reads this and comes to our rescue, or what our government has plans to put in place to help eradicate our country of zombies. Those zombies are extremely fast and some how they are able to hear even the most subtle noises. If you are looking to get past a few zombies, throw something to get their attention and then run for it to where ever you may be going. Just remember no where is safe and they hide very well.

Those things (zombies) are starting to eat one another! what? how? Guess one must do what they need to do in order to survive. This is disgusting but I think I have discovered their weakness. THEIR HUNGER!!!! Its obvious these zombies are struggling more and more to find living human flesh to feast on. So they resort to eating one another, similar to what animals do. I guess we can starve them out hopefully? either way I am starting to run low on supplies and with no sign of help insight I don't know how long I can last. I can hopefully make it 2 weeks before I run out completely. They should reduce in numbers by that time so I might be able to get the courage to go and rummage for supplies.

Fucking Christ! I have been bitten and just managed to make it back to my hideout. Guess my plans on getting out of here to scavenge for supplies ended horribly. It is only a matter of hours before I become one of them. I feel their hunger, the thirst its getting stronger. I must rest feel sleepy goodnight mommy.

4:35pm same day
