Print is not dead!
I'm excited to have my work published and seen all over the country. My process depends on the project, but there's always more work behind what you see on the page.
After receiving the scope and reading the article, I still do my own research on the topic to learn more and add more to the article than what's on the surface. Just check out the "Mapping Speed" project below as an example. I studied every track highlighted in the article to discover any unique characteristics I could include in the project.
