The weekly magazine of the valley with a new graphic design
La Valsusa, the weekly magazine of Val Susa is on newsstands today with a completely new graphic design.
But above all,
it was produced with the GN4 publishing system of Miles33 proposed in Italy by GMDE.
Training and Change
The choice to switch to an editorial system to produce the newspaper was made by the publisher at the beginning of the year. Causes of force majeure have therefore slightly lengthened the development time of the project. The training of all the editorial staff, starting from the two people involved in graphics, about the use of the editorial system was in fact via the web. The first productive phase was therefore to create the "book" pages within the publishing system.
La Valsusa took advantage of the adoption of the editorial system to renew the graphics of the newspaper. The study of the book pages made by Studio Alberto Valeri was an important part of the project.
The editorial staff had to deal with a change of pace in the production of the newspaper: workflow, user permissions and processing states are some settings present within the system that guides the production process from the creation of content to their publication involving, according to their tasks, all the people who work on the weekly.
Vito Aloisio, the project’s reference within the editorial staff, was able to immediately recognize the benefits given by the change.
GN4, the multichannel publishing system
GN4 by Miles33 is the editorial system proposed by GMDE to those publishers that have workflow and graphics setting from daily publishing. The system allows to quickly produce the newspaper optimizing the times and resources involved during production. The ability of the journalists to write directly on the page, to choose between different book pages the best one for the edition in progress, to access external resources are just some of the features made available by the system. In the case of
La Valsusa,
times have been reduced further thanks to the configuration of a workflow that guides the production of the newspaper: thanks to the editorial helm it is possible to have an eye on the progress of the newspaper, showing the working states both per page and per single article.
La Valsusa, the weekly magazine of the valleys of Susa and Sangone
