YEARBOOK - PHOTOGRAPHY - FINAL DRAFT

  • Contents page - I took onboard what Orlando said and I have changed to format of the page so that it is more legible. The structure of the grid allows the text to form two columns, which is a lot easier to follow than the previous version. It also makes better use of the space on the page, the whitespace which is left also reflects how we have used the grid to the best of its ability for each page. 
  • The title of the projects Has now been changed to title case which definitely adds some character texture to each spread - which is important as we don't want all the pages to be exactly the same. 
  • Page numbers - we found that the bottom right was the best place to have the numbers as this means that they can be flicked through to get the flipbook effect that we are after. The placement of the number was very difficult to get right as some of the images come right to the edge of the grid so I had to make sure that there was enough space around them to look right.
  • Information page - changed to white on black to keep it consistent. As well as adjusting the placement of the text so that there was more room for each person - we are able to fit 12 people on a page which we thought was a good balance of information as we did not want too much text going on here. 
  • The photographers were happy with this layout, they liked how each page had its own style to suit the work as this is what was most important. 
  • We have not been able to finish all the pages at this point as we are still waiting for all of the content to come through. But we are confident with this as our final design all that needs to be done from this point is to fine tune the book so that it can be ready for final approval which isn't until the 18th May after the final hand in.
