girls ZINE 2



This is the second title in this series. ZINE is about publishing by individuals or groups in small numbers, also called “little-press.”  The attention to ZINE increased more and more and the events and the activity of presenting ZINE are gaining nationally.
Rather than the first series which introduced much as [ ZINE GUIDE ] , the second series is broken in to the charm of ZINE introducing the interviews to a ZINE producer, the introduction of a work procedure, ZINE-related events, and the introduction of a ZINE label, etc. Panoptically, "to product" ZINE, "to be connected through ZINE" and "ZINE as a communication tool" are focused.
Moreover, It is divided into three categories, [PHOTOGRAPH-LIFE STYLE] [ART-DRAWING] [CULTURE] as ZINE GUIDE with full of visuals that one can enjoy just to look.
In the end of this book, it contains description of the basic knowledge of printing and bookbinding. This book covers the joy of getting published and discusses how such mini publications can be utilized as a tool to connect people of similar interests.
