ZIP ZINE-IN-PRODUCTION PROCESS[edit]

ZIP Prelaunch Checklist[edit]

  1. Make a ZIP# page based on the ZIP/Template for the upcoming issue's development and list it as the next issue in progress.
    1. Give it a clever Acroname.
    2. Add article concept pitches.
  2. RECRUIT
    1. Announce the issue in development needs writers and mention some story pitches in need of authors, photographers and artists to develop them at meetings via ongoing announcements.
  3. ASSEMBLE ARTICLES
    1. Put the text of each article as it is in development under /ZIP#/articletitle
    2. Have each article's text designed into a cool page layout by an artist along with any photography and illustrations.
  4. PROOF TESTING
    1. Package the finished page layouts into a PDF
    2. Announce final proof-reading test release.
    3. Once it passes proof-reading corrections, repackage the final version!
  5. Upload the final proofed version to Internet Archive to match the naming scheme of the others.

Acronaming Each Issue[edit]

Each issue needs a cleverly confusing acronym name using the Z I P letters, like Zoos Irradiate Pandas.
