SALTBURN
FASHION MAG

PUBLICATION

BRIEF/ GOALS

Design a high fashion magazine themed off of the movie Saltburn. The magazine must feature a custom letter mark, advertise clothing, and also tease the movie

This magazine follows the mentality of one of the main characters. This character is a manipulator of good and evil. He wants to present himself as good and religiously holy, while hiding his secret need for attention, lust, and hunger for money. The magazine tells that story using light and dark, while also drawing parallels to religion.

In the light is how the character presents, and in the dark is how he feels internally. One of these parallels is on the last spread. He is dressed as a gold covered angel, with highlights matching the crucifix on his left, but he is also partaking in drugs and engaging with his evil intentions.

NOTES

PROCESS

This magazine had a few iterations until it looked just right. It all started with movie research, then sketches. The sketches focused on the interaction between type, pose, costume, and lighting, so that nothing would be a surprise or unaccounted for. Then there were makeup tests and many lighting trial test shots. The most

difficult part of this process was posing. The poses were demanding and required a lot of teamwork and trust and dance breaks. Then the final hurdle was test printing for copy edits and color correction. I wanted this magazine to print exactly as it digitally previewed.
