How to Make a Magazine in 2022

Have you ever seen Werner Herzog’s 1982 film Fitzcarraldo, in which Klaus Kinski has to haul a steam ship over a hill while deep in the Amazon basin? If so, then you’ll know that the film is actually a metaphor for making magazines, and the toil that goes into getting each issue – from conception to tactile final product.

David Jenkins has been LWLies editor for nearly a decade, and will present a one hour workshop on the joys and challenges of working in the print medium. 

The presentation will cover: a brief history of Little White Lies; how covers are selected; editorial and design decisions; and the practicalities of print in the modern age. He will answer all those burning questions such as; what has been our most successful issue? What films almost made it to the cover? And what are our plans for the upcoming 100th issue? 

There will be 30 minutes after the presentation for any questions, and David will be happy to follow-up with any members who have anything more detailed they want to discuss. The video session will also be recorded and sent to those members of our Gold & Premium plans that cannot make the date.

The workshop will take place on Wednesday 3 August at either 12.30pm (GMT) or 3pm (GMT).
