HOW TO YBK: LESSON PLAN
Finally! Design.
 
Your returning staffers were probably dropping mods into grids during summer camp, but for newbies, good design might seem like the final frontier. Here are two resources and a checklist to make sure everyone knows the fundamentals.
 
If you have great ideas and lesson plans to share with your yearbook friends — and we know you do — email them to ybk@herffjones.com. We’d love to hear from you!
 
CHECK OUT THESE THREE THINGS, TOO
  1. Learning design takes practice. Here are two quick checks your students can do to test their knowledge.
  2. It all starts with a great picture package. Head back to Layout and Design p. 18-19 for a quick review.
  3. Are your staffers crazy for color? Encourage them to find inspiration in brand colors or color palettes and to echo colors in photos with color blends, BUT beware of blurple. What’s blurple? Click here to find out.
