The Game Fair 2024 Show Guide
I was headhunted to be the editorial lead on the show guide for The Game Fair 2024, the largest event of its kind in the United Kingdom.
Brochures, showguides and magazines
- Establishing the aim of the publication, its intended audience and exact pagination
- Creating a flatplan to include a set number of articles, pictures and adverts

- Writing content and sourcing external content and pictures as appropriate
- Working with designers to enhance the impact of each page
