My Process:
To create Matchpoint, I started by researching and planning the content, ensuring I had permission to use Valorant assets for personal use. After gathering all the necessary resources, I sketched out several potential layouts, experimenting with the visual flow. I then crafted a small handbound mockup of the magazine to explore its tactile feel. Once the structure was set, I worked with a 6-column grid in Adobe InDesign to design the final layout, with consistency and clarity. Finally, the magazine was completed and ready for presentation.
