Features

Feature stories are something Volume One tries to run pretty regularly if possible. Not only do feature stories break up an issue’s regular content by highlighting unique topics, but they also create really cool opportunities for designers to flex our creative muscles. Design parameters are pretty open when it comes feature stories, so it’s really important to read the story first to make sure the content + design work together. Feature stories also utilize social media as a way to reach audiences beyond the print issue, and I was honored to win the Milwaukee Press Club’s 2021 Bronze Award for Best Journalistic Use of Social Media to Tell or Enhance a Story.
