Brainstorming Zine ideas

I started by writing down a bunch of things I enjoy and various concepts that related either to the class or the project in general, I then began to combine the ideas into one larger idea which would server as my theme "The History of Videogames".

When I was thinking about how I could easily divide the history of videogames into 8 pages there was only one easy answer, each page would be a different console generation.

I then went on to think over what games should represent each of these generations. This was so that I knew what I generally wanted on each page image wise.

The last thing I needed to do was get a rough idea of how I wanted to lay out the pages in order to get the history across visually. To do so I though of the idea of each collage being broken to form different sections that shatter into yet more sections as time goes on with Mario being one character that remains constant as a general face of gaming.
