The pilot issue of Hue Magazine, Outset, explores the origin of ideas behind self-initiated works.

Hue magazine aims to discuss aspects of creative studio culture and practice that stretch across a varied range of creative disciplines, from the unique approach of creatives connected to the Church.

Editor Chris Smyth “We invited a number of studios, freelancers and creative directors from around the world to comment on the process behind their self-initiated works and studio projects. Encouraging them to respond however they felt appropriate, resulting in a unique style of publication exploring a regular feature for creatives across a range of disciplines.”

Self ‘assigned’ briefs and studio projects have often played an important part and are a regular feature in the creatives portfolio. Whether simply a brief respite from restrictive client briefs or an opportunity to strengthen the portfolio, many creatives deliberately put aside time for such projects. Outset sets out to explore what drives ideas when clients aren’t paying the bills.
