Rise is a magazine created to tell the stories of student activists at the University of Central Florida who are doing advocacy work on campus and beyond. In parallel, these issues also serve to answer the question of what a portrait could look like of a person if the medium was an editorial design rather than traditional painting.
LOGO DESIGN
The logo for Rise evokes the movement and dynamism present in student activism using a bold, sans-serif typeface sheared diagonally paired with the three lines which suggest speed and quickness.

ISSUE DESIGNS
The three issues designed for Rise utilize different monochromatic color schemes paired with custom paper options to characterize the personality of each activist being interviewed. The look and feel is a blend of zines printed on risograph and contemporary editorial design.
