A magazine brimming with good articles but trapped within dull covers, uninspiring layout and lifeless images. Readers therefore skim through the pages and miss the gems. What a pity.
Designs do make a difference. An attractively-looking magazine captivates the readers and draws their attention to the contents. To encourage Christian ministries to uplift the standard of design of their newsletters and publication, and ultimately increase readership, one company is offering a design course at a special fee.
The company, Word-Design Communications, has been successfully conducting design courses for corporate companies. As its way of contributing to the Christian community, it is offering the course to churches and Christian organisations at a special fee so as to enable more Christians to benefit.
A one-day course cost RM150, which is less than a quarter of what it charges its corporate clients. The course is targeted at non-designers who are involved in getting out their church’s or organisation’s publications. Participants learn design elements – such as effective use of fonts, colours and images – and basic layout principles, among others.
So, if you think your magazine needs a facelift, call Kevin at 03-7727 0608 or e-mail word_design@hotmail.com to find out more about the course. |
