A new kind of magazine
Facefull was created on a basic concept, ‘in your face
in your world’. The name was chosen in this same vein,
as we offer a different vision of paintball, stronger, hotter,
more creative, and more professional. We are not just ‘another’
paintball magazine, our objective was to be the only reference
in paintball publications, and we succeded. Facefull innovates
in many different aspects, one of which is the overall format
of our magazine (221/299mm), large and homothetic to the US
format for adapting American print advertisements. Furthermore,
the magazine features 212 pages in color, with pure and raw
images. Each page is charted on a special graphic blueprint,
set up well in advance.
The magazine is readily accessible through attention grabbing
covers, in sync with the overall image of our product. It is
easily read, with a sustained and open layout. Even the typography
is unique to the magazine, making Facefull a beautiful object
in itself.
In hand, it weighs 700 grams, something that cannot leave you
indifferent. But it does not stop there, the editorial team
follows the original concept by offering a unique writing-style
in clever and in-depth features.
Premium content - Tournaments
Each NPPL, PSP and Millennium leagues are covered on 8 pages
with a quick-start 2 page spread, and a harmonious balance between
text and pictures.
Particular attention is given to the pro finals, describing
each game with professionalism and objectivity.
A chart ranks the tournament on all its major aspects (scheduling,
infrastructure, fields). Graphics of each field are drawn to
let the reader easily follow each game resume. |

World Book
Paintball is a fast growing sport in the entire world. But in many
countries, the sport is not important enough to have a national magazine
entirely dedicated to paintball. On the other hand, local demand for
national and international events is a reality. For this purpose,
the Facefull team decided to create the World Book. This concept,
unique in the world of paintball and other sports magazines, is the
coordination of over 70 correspondents, all professionals and active
representatives in their national markets. The objective is to generate
local interest, by publishing information about the country, through
a mini-magazine where each reader can find paintball news relevant
to his (her) part of the world.
Facefull proposes a radically different approach than the traditional
specialized paintball press. Setting itself apart through its form,
212 full-color pages, and unmatched paper quality; through its team,
both press and paintball professionals. Through its vision, as Facefull
has already been hailed as the best available showroom for the sport;
through its pre-existing knowledge of the market, since distribution
of this magazine also uses an already operational network. Through
the interest showed by the respective national markets, as their only
publication for local paintball news. Facefull is already established
with more than 60,000 copies sold in 50 countries through our traditional
paintball network (stores, sites, factory outlets and subscriptions),
and full national newsstands sales in the US and Canada (Barnes &
Nobles, Borders, LMPI, Speedimpex, etc).
