Strawberry Shortcake's Berry-Tastic Zine is a for-charity fan-made zine all about Strawberry Shortcake and her friends!
All profits were donated to For Goodness Cakes, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization that gives underprivileged youth the chance to have a birthday by matching volunteers to bake special cakes just for them.
Features:
- 60+ pages of illustrations, stories, and recipes
- 9 phone + desktop wallpapers, 2 sets of desktop icons, 11 printable stickers, and a beautiful coloring page!
- 30+ creators
- 6 mods
I founded the zine as the lead mod, creating initial marketing art for social media (Instagram, Tumblr, & Twitter) as well as organizing applications for other mods and contributors, checking in on contributors, and adjusting schedule as needed.
As the lead mod, I determined the production schedule, marketing, found potential charities & guest artists, assembled a mod team, and organized meetings with the mod team to determine potential production companies & costs, which prompted us to go entirely digital.
I also illustrated the cover art.
