Magazines

[Joey Foreman]

Creative Cow, maybe?

I love magazines too but it looks like they might be going bye bye. Interwebs and all.

But seriously, CC’s rag is pretty good good and i look forward to getting it in the snail mail.

I haven’t received a DV in the mail in a while but they had some good features. Wonder if they’re still around…?

Print isn’t really the medium of choice for motion graphics magazines. The Creative COW magazine is the only print magazine that I get these days.

My favorite non-print “magazine” in this area is Stash. You get a DVD with a collection of pieces (commercials, music videos, etc.) with information about who made them and how.

I’m not sure any of them are considered “magazines”, but I also like https://xplsv.tv, https://www.motionographer.com & https://www.motionworks.com.au

I find online resources invaluable but, for the most part, I’m with you, Dave … I tend to get most of my reading done when I either can’t or don’t want to lug a laptop around and … sitting in lobbies waiting for appointments, on occasional visits to the the beach/pool, in restaurants, etc.

Maybe its just an old-dog-new-tricks thing, but for me, its much easier to stick a few mags in my bag than it is to carry a laptop everywhere I go so I actually miss printed mags and even newspapers.

I understand that cost-savings is a very potent business driver, although some would argue whether its really any cheaper to build, administrate and maintain websites, but its still hard to figure why the choice has to be one or the other instead of both, which is probably why the COW chooses both … at least for now.
