Printed and built mock ups
For a feedback session I printed out my nets and crafted them just to illustrate how they'll work in conjunction with the printed research book. I think the belly band works best because it allows me to package and keep together a z-bound book but also doesn't cover up too much of the covers as it will be be full bleed images. The belly band allows me to add a title and contents to either side of the band so it works no matter what side of the book your are looking from. Even through it doesn't offer protection in the slightest to the publication I feel it serves a different purpose and function that aids more than to protect.
Final Bellyband
This is the final belly band below, i've kept it super simple as to not detract from the main focus which it the imagery, each side of the band basically gives you the title and the programme involved in each countries race to the Moon.
