152: Print Publishing Possibilities with Chris Fraser of Moveable Inc.

Updated: Jun 14



Welcome back to the fourth episode in this magazine series. Here you’ll meet Chris Fraser, Chief Finder - Business Development for Toronto-based Printing Company, Moveable Inc.


In this episode you’ll hear actionable takeaways for printing magazines, including how to get started. Chris shares his ‘bankable’ insights including specifics info about magazine size, paper choices, the importance of proofing, delivery, alterations and scheduling, all starting with the end in mind.


Chris details why and how Print on Demand (POD) magazines may or may not be a feasible solution for the future of magazine production, as well as ideas for funding your magazine with so many incredible examples along the way.

You’ll get the most out of listening to this episode if you have some knowledge of the printing industry and its terminology. If you’re fairly new to the industry, I recommend first listening to episodes 097, 098 and 099 (The 3-part ABC’s of GCM series) to be introduced to some of the important terminology Chris uses in this episode.

This episode is part of a guest lecture series in GCM 720 Magazine Production & Publishing in The Creative School at TMU.
