The Australian PhotoJournalist (APJ) publication is a project run by the photography department and photo journalist students of the Queensland College of Art, Griffith University. Liveworm has been providing the design of the publication since it’s inception.

Work on some of the stories in this edition of the APJ began in 2009 and 2010. These initial ideas and directions were passed on to Danni-elle Cook and Kevin Tuazon in 2011 when all of the images and copy were finalised. This edition consists of photographic sories contributed by various photojournalists from around the globe. These stories were all concerned with the theme of this issue: Epilogue and featured photographers Johnathan Torgovnik, Ziyah Gafic, Dorothee Deiss, Donald Weber, Andrew McConnell, Edward Burtynsky, Brigitte Grignet, Alfonso Moral, Ashley Gilbertson, Alec Soth, Suzanne Opton, Shahidul Alam, Brenda Ann Kenneally, Ilan Godfrey, Abbie Trayler-Smith, Melanie Burford and Jim Goldberg. Photojournalist students of QCA contacted these photographers at the beginning of the project, selected and edited the photos provided and contributed introductions to each story.

The visual style for this edition follows on from the previous Rights of the Child publication (by students Jasmin de la Vega Cruz and Shaelah Ariotti). The design features an array of hand created typography and interesting textural treatments — all created during an intense but rewardingly experiemental few months in the studio.

The publication won a bronze medal in the perfect bound books catagoriy for our printer The Buckner Group in the 2011 Queensland Printing Industries Craftsmanship (PICA) Awards. The edition was printed on HannoArt Silk paper stock by KW Doggett Fine Paper.
