Instructions
We are using a simple format which reduces a single sheet of paper down to a sequenced 8 page booklet. Follow this tutorial for instructions on how to print and fold your booklet into pages. When dealing with a series of pages, we are now considering pacing and narrative. Understand that the object you are designing is linear: a viewer encounters the booklet one spread at a time. How can you pace the booklet in order to surprise the viewer, consider variation, scale, and structure as key components to pacing out your booklet.
