The document provides details on idea development and production planning for a fanzine on the Final Fantasy video game series, including mood boards, page layout, character pages, an interview, and a 3-week production schedule to complete the fanzine layout and illustrations.

1. Idea Development
Alexander Sullivan-Cree

2. Mood Boards:
A range of ideas to take forward in to production. Should include images, colour schemes and font choices. Could include

4. Pagination:
A plan for the pages of your book. What will be the cover? What will be the running order? What will go in it? How many
pages for each item? This is important to get right if you want it to print correctly later on. It will also help you plan the space
you have.

For the front cover I'm going to
Base the Design off the final fantasy
V box art as its my favourite from
the game series.
For the second and eleventh page of the
fanzine, I’m going to create a pattern of three
of the series most iconic characters. That being
the Chocobo, the Moogle and Cactuar.
For the first character Information
page, I'm going to do Cloud Strife
from Final Fantasy VII as I believe
its one of the series most iconic
games as well as one of the most
iconic characters. I shall Be talking
about their appearance, origins and
role in the story of the game.

Vivi Ornitier from Final
Fantasy IX and featuring
one of his quotes.
Smilar to Vivi Ornitier,
I'm going to be creating

For my double page spread
and interview form the
