Task 3

After developing content (text and visuals) the next stage is to determine the format (size and binding method), and an appropriate & attractive layout based on a suitable grid system, choice of font/s and use of colour. You have already determined size and format it Task 1 exercises. 

1. Due to time constraints the binding method shall be predetermined to be staple binding (saddle binding). The book is of 32 pages, which is smaller than A4 and bigger than A5. However, should you wish to try a Page | 9 different binding method you may do so with the approval of your lecturer. 

2. You will need to adapt a suitable grid system, choose a fitting font and create an attractive layout in InDesign. 

3. Your choice of colour must compliment your visuals and play a role that is supportive but also create dynamism where needed. It is advised to limit the use of colour, as it could be distracting. 

4. You need to determine your paper type, for cover as well as inside pages. A visit to the print shop is advised. The end result will be an actual size mock-up of the book with finishing that is of good standard.
