BACKGROUND:
We now haveour Theme for next year and it is __________HUSKY TIME_______________. As a "final exam/project", I will be asking each student to create a TEMPLATE on yearbookavenue.com that incorporates this theme and the concepts of the page you are being asked to create.
MAKE SURE YOU CREATE AND SAVE THESE TEMPLATES IN THE 2013 YEARBOOK!
TO START: Consider the theme of the yearbook and the page(s) that you have been assigned to create. Review the layouts in the PAGE SURFER books and in the PAGE SURFER section on yearbookavenue.com. I want a template created that looks JUST LIKE those!
THE PAGES:
| STUDENT | PAGE TEMPLATE |
|---|---|
| Burns | Academic Page (Foreign Lang.) |
| Castillo | Academic Page (Technology) |
| Clayton | Divider (with pages/sections) |
| DeHoyos | Clubs Page (12 clubs) |
| Elder | Class Page (underclassmen) |
| Garcia | Academic Page (LA) |
| Isakson | Academic Page (Phys. Ed.) |
| Jerabek | INDEX Page |
| Kagie | Academic Page (Art) |
| Lind | Class Page (Seniors) |
| Loma | Volleyball Page |
| Lopez | Homecoming Page |
| Navarro | Academic Page (Music) |
| Rigg | Football Page |
| Riley | Academic (Math) |
| Rivera | Basketball Page |
| Thompson | Academic Page (Science) |
CREATING THE PAGES: Open up the PAGE DESIGNER. Start putting your page together. Use FILE>SAVE AS TEMPLATE to save your page.
CALL THE PAGES- LASTNAME_SUBJECT, for instance: BURKHARD-FOOTBALL.
PLEASE USE THE LOREM IPSUM GENERATOR TO FILL IN YOUR TEXT AND CAPTIONS!
REQUIREMENTS FOR YOUR TEMPLATE:
- The words HEADLINE TEXT
- An area for "Place subheadline here."
- Formatted image boxes for folios according to the Theme.
- Formatted image boxes for page photographs.
- Formatted text boxes for page story and text. Use Text Wrapping, as appropriate.
- Formatted text Boxes for photo captions.
- Color formatting, lines, boxes, shapes appropriate to theme, etc.
- Layout appropriate to the Theme.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO INCLUDE:
- Any actual photographs.
- Graphic elements, such as paint splashes, textured backgrounds, etc.
- Actual stories or headlines or captions. Please use Lorem ipsum, or student name or the like.
GOOD SAMPLE FROM LAST YEAR's FINAL PROJECT:
DUE DATE:
This assignment will be due during the final's period for your class. Seniors will have this due next Wednesday in class, underclassmen the week after.
A WORD OF WARNING: I expect some decent planning and thought and execution to go into the creation of these pages. My goal is to be able to USE these when we start next year! If you simply submit a bunch of image boxes and a HEADLINE, you will FAIL this FINAL.
GRADING:
- Pleasing and creative use of page layout addressing theme and subject= 20 points possible.
- Pleasing and creative use of headlines and subheads.= 20 points possible.
- Proper use and placement of image boxes.= 20 points possible.
- Proper use and placement of text boxes.= 20 points possible.
