Always had an interest in making different flavors work together. There presentation side of things creating something different and the reaction you
get from people when they try a cocktail and really like it.

4. Copy:
I wanted my interview to be professional and relevant to the context but I also wanted any age group (18+) to relate or be
interested in my fanzine. I also wanted my interview to be quite personal towards the person I was interviewing.
The layout I wanted to be minimalistic which a few illustrations so it flows with the rest of the fanzine. And instead of
numbering my questions and answers I chose to define the question from the answer through colours: black and blue.
