Shannon's Spread

I'm not sure if i should make it a 2 spread or not so for now i just did this...

Sorry this is late, I'm just a terrible person.

Please give me input!!!! Tell me what you think about it, because I have been staring at it so long I can't tell.

Riley's Farm Field Trip!

Riley's Farm:
The weird thing is that the page template's dimensions are not perfect: 8.25" x 19.2"






Drawing Class:
Working draft - I will hope to put a title in the pencil picture, and touch up that picture to make it stand out more.
Then I'll put in text boxes on the right-hand page about the pictures/class.




Let me know if you think something looks awkward, weird, etc.

God Bless,
Sam

Football page- I think we decided to make the other side volleyball?

Reminder

One two page spread due here tomorrow. Thanks you all!!!

Sam

Lateness is my Forte :(

Mrs. Baird I greatly apologize for not submittting a final draft - would you be so kind as to allow my post tomorrow morning of my final draft?
I was taken to the emergency room yesterday due to complications of my pneaumonia (I'm recovering and doing well now), and I didn't check the blog when the deadline was posted :(

I will submit my final draft tomorrow at 10:00 am

Again I apologize for lateness

God Bless
Sam

My Final Cover!

shannon's Yearbook Cover...final draft

Steph's Yearbook Cover *final*

Taylor's Final Draft

Any Ideas? **the second & third ones are edited versions**

I'm a little behind since I only just learned all the tricks of photo shop...so i have a cover that I like, but I feel like it needs a bit more....any have suggestions??

Everyone

I would like to see one two page spread of one of your SGA class projects or field trip projects posted here by Dec 9th. It looks like we do have class on the 16th. At that point we should have lots of headshots in and be able to start entering those into the yearbook during class time.

Who was the one that was going to be editing in terms of grammar and spelling? I couldn't remember? If it is you let me know. I would like you to be paying close attention to the pages posted here.

Remember from class yesterday all photos to be sized to 300dpi when sizes uncheck and check the resample image box so that your image falls into the right dimension based on the size file. If those dimensions end up really really small like 1 inch by2 you will know it is most likely a low res image and not suitable for the book. Please please please pay attention to this.

Also be checking for blown highlights. Do not include images that are missing information.

Stephanie and Shannon

Post your first question/poll for the yearbook by this Friday give until the next Wed Class to Answer which is Dec 2nd.

Final Covers DUE

Final yearbook covers are due here Friday November 20th by 10:00am.

I will be transferring them to main blog without names for a VOTE.

Paige

Can you change the settings so that more posts are visible at once? Thanks

guides

The following are your templates to begin your page layout for assignments. You need to become very familiar with how these work. All yearbook page assignments will be due in this format.

Please download the 10x8 landscape book template here

http://theartofengineering.wordpress.com/2008/01/22/free-blurb-templates/

be sure to check under view that your guides are on.

Follow the directions here in terms of layout.

Final Drafts

Final drafts will be due the next Wed we meet...which I believe is Nov 18th. If you would like more critique on your design please narrow it down to one style and post it here on the blog. I think it would be good to pick one to stick with at this point and take it as far as you can go. Remember to keep texts and such within the margins needed. I will post the guide dimensions link again here.

another idea..... by Paige

???

when are we going to post the final drafts? Anyone know?

Shannon's Yearbook Cover... Second draft

Ok this is my second draft tell me if you like the 1st or 2nd one better : ) thanks!

~TAYLOR'S SECOND DRAFT

When is the second drafts due?

another idea...

Paige's

Ok, sorry this is late, I was totally drawing a blank. I have another idea but I need more time, this is kinda just me messing around. I tried making the words look like they were carved but then you couldn't see them.

Other ideas

So here are my other ideas, the first has Hannah Gray in it, but I will probably add a modest amount of texture to make it be a bit more appropriate (you know what I mean?)
Both of these are tiny res image captures to make posting them easier. Let me know what you all think!!

~Taylor's Yearbook Idea~

OKAY THIS IS MY IDEA, I TOOK THE PICTURE TODAY SO I DIDNT DO ANYTHING TO IT YET, BUT THIS IS JUST THE BASIC IDEA. I WILL GO ON PHOTOSHOP AND MAKE IT LOOK ALL COOL.

Steph's Yearbook Cover

Ok, this is one of my ideas, but i have another super cool one, but i need more time to pull it off. So, I'll post the new one in a couple days.

Yearbook cover

Shannon's Yearbook Cover... first draft

Sam's First Idea...

So here are my first and second ideas of Yearbook cover designs...

If Mrs. Baird says the image is too small (very likely), I'll try something else and submit that in the days to come...

cool, ok everyone has to post their cover ideas and comment on others
