報導者事件簿 003:無體溫關係
《報導者事件簿》是台灣非營利新聞媒體《報導者》(The Reporter)推出的深度報導刊物,結合報導漫畫、深度調查與新聞攝影,以多元的敘事形式,帶領讀者理解複雜的社會議題。
封面設計以「檔案」為概念,採用大小雙層結構。小封面如同檔案夾,標示編號與檔名,必須翻開才能看見底下的內容,隱喻那些藏在社會角落、不易被看見的事件。封面插畫取自當期漫畫分鏡,經重新拼貼後,透過兩層封面的遮掩,讓畫面僅露出局部,留下想像與懸念。設計的關鍵在於精準控制構圖,讓重要畫面恰好從兩道縫隙中顯露,如同剪輯電影預告片,在有限的畫面裡安排節奏、埋下線索,引導讀者進一步探索。
The Reporter File Case No. 003
The Reporter Case Files is an in-depth journalism publication by The Reporter, a Taiwanese nonprofit newsroom. Blending comics journalism, investigative reporting, and documentary photography, it tells complex social stories in accessible form.
The cover takes the “archive” as its starting point, with two overlapping covers of different sizes. The smaller cover resembles a file folder marked with a case number and title. Readers must lift it to see what lies beneath, evoking stories hidden in the margins of society, events that often go unseen. The illustration rearranges panels from the issue’s comics, and the layered covers reveal only fragments, leaving room for imagination and suspense. The challenge is placing key details so they show through the two narrow gaps. Like editing a film trailer, it means controlling pacing and planting clues within a limited frame.
