Improved brief


The Brief

Title
Garfield Minus Garfield ‘zine edition’

Background 
Garfield Minus Garfield is a niche webcomic launched by technology manager Dan Walsh in 2008. The site is dedicated to removing Garfield from original Garfield comic strips to portray the ‘existential angst’ of Mr. Jon Arbuckle; the bi-monthly updated comics exhibit the ‘journey into the mind of an isolated young everyman’ as he fights ‘loneliness and depression in a quiet American Suburb’.

Brief 
Produce a niche comic book publication that translates Garfield Minus Garfield onto printed matter. Your design concept must reflect the interactive and personal nature of comic books in order to build a playful user experience.   

Deliverables 
An A5 printed publication with complimentary sticker sheet.

Research Aims
To transform the webcomic Garfield Minus Garfield into an interactive experience for target audiences. Consider traditional comic book layout design and choices in type and illustrative elements. Investigate how user experiences can be personal in a contemporary format.
