Year book Crit

After a long discussion about the year books developments the changes we have to make to develop the year book are as follows:
More quotes for the year book from industry perhaps don't give a full dps to individual industry. 
More information about the course and th estaff.
Make the quote pages more distinguishable
Same for the achievements
Ackowledgements
Mug shots page
Gives the book a pause inbetween the spreads.
Perhapes trying full bleed or bright pages or different stock.
Reversing out colour
linking the color to the covers

Go through all the images and make sure the image adjustments are to the full capability.
James Lauries shot was a good colour which is where we need to aim the photograph to be. 

We talked however about the layout which was positive yet with the binding method of perfect binding we need to consider the gutter length used within the book and to aware that some names and work descriptions may be lost. We need to resolve this by adjusting the layout slightly.

We need also to ensure that we get the book bound by PUR which will make the book stronger.
Honors is Hons.

Front cover the name can not be new designers as tis is currently an exhibition.
We need to show Leeds college of art more.
We need to have the number two as a figure within the book

The spin needs to be the same so that it can run in a editions throughout the years.
think aabout blank grids yet liked the plain one with the typelayiut out at each end.
Look at WGSM for colours website

Try overlaying portraits to black or see what outcome get from it.
Stock needs to be really powerful spend more effort obn cover now as this is what will make people pick up the cover.

For next week final design absolute final designs so clients can just see each spread clearly and pick out slight things.  Fijal stock choices and prices. Pdf sent day before to pdf.  120 pages quote  for how much will it cost with spot varnish  cover stock costs  
mock up needed.
