1st Semester Design Final

Your job is to design a spread for our student mug shots. The mug shot is the small picture of your classmates that is located in the class section of the yearbook. 

Evaluation:

I will be evaluating your knowledge of our Adobe InDesign program. I will not help you in any way, shape or form. That's why we call this a Final! 

Rules of the final:

1. no talking
2. independent working (make sure you are not looking at/copying someone else's idea -- this is considered cheating.)
3. turn your final into the folder named: "Mugshot Spread"

Steps to Begin:

1. Open a template called "blank8" that can be found inside the Templates folder that's inside the Yearbook2016 folder.
2. Save as: djones_mugshot spread

Requirements: 

• Comic Book Theme (naturally)
• Creativity/original design
  
• Specific dimensions -- mug shot frame should have a width of 6 picas and a height of 8 picas.
• Amount of mug shots: 20 mug shots per page or 40 per spread.
  
• Profile a student: Incorporate a student photo and story. Since the original interview is gone, you may use dummy text. If you still have the original photo of your "super" student, you may use it. If not, find a photo online -- of anyone. (By the way, you will need to re-interview your student in the near future. But if you have decided that your original interview subject is no longer worthy of "super" status, then you may choose someone else. The deadline for this will be a week after we return from break. Make sure you record the interview in a google doc.)
• Your design sense -- you make ALL the decisions here (Do not come up to me for this; remember, this is a final!!)
• Your decisions include -- font choice, colors, spacing, strokes, etc...
• Something different -- as long as it's in the context of a COMIC theme, try something that we have done yet. It can be a graphic element similar to a speech bubble, a different kind of starburst, a riff on a halftone, or something ...

         You may look up examples in google to help you.

​GOOD LUCK!!!
