Spectrum creates spreads using the Adobe program InDesign. One of Spectrum lead editors Valentina Gianesi talked about creating spreads, “my favorite part of the fall magazine this year is seeing the growth of everyone, we started off making really simple spreads which were just blocks of color with maybe one picture and seeing everyone get really creative.” The class is full of creative students, who create a great product.
