Hi, I'm Tom Betridge and this... is my source material.
2
Okay, so your producers were like, hey, are there any magazines we can get you?
3
I was like, I'd really like the first issue of Joe's Magazine.
4
Which was this magazine, Joe McKenna, who's one of the most legendary stylists in history made.
5
And it was unbound, so this is just folded paper.

11
Colors Magazine was funded by United Colors of Benetton.
12
Technically it was kind of like a corporate branding project.
13
And it was created by Olivero Toscani, who is like a creative director who kind of for me
14
is the ultimate blueprint of like image making in the modern age.
15
And I thought Colors was a really incredible magazine because it almost sought to like document the world.
16
This tension between an image and then when you put a text on top of it, you make it something totally different.
17
And that's really like the core principle of magazine making.

24
Actually kind of rigid and like very Swiss looking in a lot of ways.

28
Frank Ocean shot by my friend Petra Collins, styled by my friend Mel Ottenberg, who was the fashion director at the time.
29

32
I also wanted to do an unboxing.
33
I was in Paris last week.
34
My friends who make this magazine called All In were launching the new issue that they made, and they also have an incredible fashion brand called August Barron.
35
And it was funny because when I was teaching at Central St. Martin's earlier this year, all the students, when I asked them what their favorite magazine was, they all said All In Magazine.
36
It's such an obscure, kind of like niche publication.
37
Something that really resonated with the students was this kind of like material quality to it.
38

48
There's this genre called Vimmel Builder, which are images that are really ornate and have lots of detail.
49
Hieronymus Bosch or Where's Waldo are both Vimmel Builder.
50
Magazines are usually about sexy face, close-up, and soft focus or whatever, but I like the idea of having Vimmel Builder of Migos on the cover.
51
John and I really wanted to make a magazine that looks like a fashion magazine
52
and like play off the tropes of 90s GQ.
53
I actually have pages that have product recommendations.

We spent a lot of time in the archive, you know, in the early decades, 80s, 90s especially, they would just find cool people
58
that they met going out or whatever and they would just put them on the cover, turn them into icons.
59
I kind of wanted to do like the 2025 version of that.

63
Was like the star actor at her school plays and aspiring model, LARPer.
64
We went to visit her for three days, me and Aiden Zemiri, who shot the story.
65
And we spent just like the first day just like hanging out
66
and seeing her world and where she goes with her friends.
67
On the shoot days, we shot her in her environment, in her room, in her living room.
68
This picture was like at the drama club that she's in in school.
69
So this was like a really special magazine for me
70
because it was sort of like about this idea of like the reference system.
71
I got really down a rabbit hole in like the ID history
72
and like so much of the stuff in here is a reflection of that nerd out session.
73
This is the second issue I did of ID.
74

76
So we wanted to kind of have like the first like gen beta magazine cover.
77
We did this photo shoot with this beautiful baby on the cover winking, which was really great.
78
What we did was we actually, in lieu of a profile, we asked like a lot of important artists and politicians
79
and figures in the world to give advice to someone born in 2025.
80
It's funny because we actually design on Figma.
81
You know, we kind of create sort of formulas and we kind of see how things fit in those formulas, but then we break the formulas.
82
You know, because graphic design can be very systematic.
83
I think something
84
that was a real innovation for ID was it used graphic design in this very expressive way
85
and this very DIY kind of way.
86
Collaborative tools where you can just drag and drop stuff
87
and multiple people can feast on it at once is like a really fun way to design a magazine
88
and like not the way I came up designing magazines.

什麼是跟讀法?
跟讀法 (Shadowing) 是一種有科學依據的語言學習技巧,最初開發用於專業口譯員的培訓,並由多語言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。這個方法簡單而強大:您在聽英語母語原聲的同時立即大聲重複——就像是一個延遲1-2秒緊跟說話者的影子。與被動聽力或語法練習不同,跟讀法強迫您的大腦和口腔肌肉同時處理並模模擬實的講話模式。研究表明它能顯著提高發音準確性,語調,節奏,連讀,聽力理解和口語流利度——使其成為雅思口語備考和真實英語交流最有效的方法之一。
