FIRST IMPRESSIONS

LASTING IMPRESSIONS
TITLE PAGE, or page one: information most often includes title of the book, volume number, year, school name, city, state, zip code, phone/fax numbers, email address, web site, enrollment. OPENING/CLOSING designs (including title and parting pages): take the same verbal/visual approach as the cover and front endsheet. DIVIDERS, or the spreads that separate sections of the yearbook: all have the same basic design to effectively signal the change of sections and are variations of the opening/closing spreads. |
CAPTIONS
|
A picture is worth a thousand words unless your task is writing a strong photo caption. When editing your middle school yearbook, knowing what to put in the sentence or two that describes a photograph is a vital function that lets readers understand what they are seeing. Generally, good caption writing should be in present tense and feature an active voice, using strong verbs. They also should answer concisely each basic tenant of journalism: who, what, when, and where, and sometimes why and how.

More caption practice and a GAME!! |

PHOTOGRAPHY |
Day 1: |
Every day people are bombarded with thousands of visual images. The media of this century and beyond will continue the visually oriented and graphic trend that exploded in the latter part of the last century. One of the key components to the success of these visual print publications is photography.
Since the days of the Civil War, photos have served a critical role in the development of our society. The images for a yearbook are no less powerful in creating a historical record — from a student perspective. |
