How CNN’s Courageous Studio Taps Print to Showcase Its Video Work

Why would a leading maker of cross-platform branded content choose to showcase its work in a printed magazine?  When CNN’s in-house brand studio, Courageous, began distributing an oversized, high-design quarterly, we spoke with the team behind it to understand the vision and how the studio aims to bring the power of storytelling to another dimension.  Chief Creative Officer of Courageous, Otto Bell, set the stage, while Director of Design Sean Brown and Senior Designer Marites Algones, who brought the book to life beginning with the Fall 2017 inaugural issue, explained their rationale and creative approach during the interview.
