2015 PERSONA LITERARY & ARTS MAGAZINE OF TEXAS STATE UNIVERSITY

As the 2015 Senior Art Editor of Persona, a student literary and arts magazine of Texas State University, I redesigned the entire magazine for Issue 51. In celebration of being in print for 50 years, I wanted to change it up a bit and showcase that there could be more to this magazine if you take the time and put in the work to create something better. My team and I ended up changing the size of the publication, added new colors, kept within budget, and made the choice to make the front cover be our favorite of the student art submissions. This gave the magazine an edge within the art submissions, due to the fact that a student could have their work displayed as our front cover. In a year, we had more submissions and involvement from our student body because of our extra marketing and flyer making we did, compared to previous years.
