This editorial layout was created as part of my graphic design course. Inspired by Tim Burton’s stop-motion film “Corpse Bride,” the project explores the intersection of typography and narrative.
The goal was to capture the poetic melancholy and visual drama of the film through composition, type rhythm, and atmospheric textures.
The result is a cinematic magazine spread that balances editorial clarity with emotional storytelling.
