Seniors! Put in your senior layout background

2. Make a picture frame 15.6667 x 10.8294 and place the background in it.
3. Fit content to frame.
4. Put a .75 white stroke around all of your text.

First 40 pages=Christmas

Cover, Endsheets, Introduction, Opening and Senior Layouts are all due December 19th. That is 23 school days from now.

Senior layouts require a profile interview and 4 pictures, two Best/Most pictures of four people and quotes, and all the senior pictures. This is not an easy task especially if you have two senior layouts.

My fear is not much is getting done. It definitely requires making arrangement and collecting pictures outside of class.

Also some seniors are involved as well in making movies. Volleyball, soccer and football need to be done before Christmas also. Interviews require arrangement and most of these sports have banquests that we can make money at with DVD sales if a movie is ready.

Listen Up!

Here's some stuff everybody needs to be thinking about and DOING:

-Sub themes for Out of This World. Think stars, galaxies, nebulas, etc. Space stuff that works with each layout. There's a list of almost all of our layouts a couple posts down. It doesn't have swimming or wrestling, so those need to be included.
-20 Best/Most. Be creative and don't say "Best Hair" or something similar. It's going to be hard to think of twenty original ones, but please try.
-10 Senior Profiles. Find somebody who does cool stuff or has a weird talent for something. There have been theater people, computer people, musical people, artistic people, and every other kind of person you can think of.

Please think of stuff and come to class with ideas and you won't be yelled at.

Sports Schedule Poster for 2013-14 and Videos for Senior Party

We are still in need of selling ad space to fill the sports schedule calendar. It won't be printed until probably late July or early August when the schedules are finalized. However, we need to sell ads before school is out so we can have the layout ready to just insert the schedules. The four sizes are as follows:

1.25" x 1.25" @ $150
2.5" x 2"        @ $235
3.5" x 2"        @ $250
6" x 2"           @ $350

We also need to make the ads immediately. Kalea has a spread made and we are tentatively going to print through Bigfork UPS to keep the whole thing local.

The senior interview video will be done tomorrow with the very last senior baby pictures entered tomorrow. The music audio levels and interviews then can be leveled.

Unique Home Designs

Does anyone remember selling an ad to Unique Home Designs? It is downtown Bigfork (we think). Kallister, do you remember anything about going to Tammy's? It says 1/4 page and nothing else. Thanks!

New assignment

Here is a request from Mr. Porrovecchio.

Mike,

Can you/few of your seniors assist with putting together a video compilation for the beginning of graduation? maybe have some mellow background music for people to enjoy as they enter and sit in the gym and wait for the ceremony to start.

I just met with Logan Lamm and we went over graduation (hard to imagine) plans and the video came up so I thought I would run it by you well in advance.

MP

This is something we have done in the past. We can just take the finished Sr pics for our interview and slideshow them. We could also add pics from the year or years. It depends on time.

I will assign this task soon.

Photoshop projects

In Photoshop when you finish a image that you are working on and begin a new document you should in most cases reset your preferences. This sets all of your tools and pallettes back to the default settings.

This is particularly important if you are prepping an image for the yearbook and then switching to work on an image for video.

To reset your preferences: Hold down Command-Option-Shift as your launch Photoshop.
A message saying "Delete the Adobe Photoshop Settings File?" will show up

~Thanks! Riley C. :)

MISSING LINKS

Hello!
As I have gone through to start editing, the first two pages I open have missing links. Instead of placing pictures from  your "pictures" folder, you need to put them in the folder corresponding to your layout! PLEASE! :)

Gus and Eliza, yours are the only ones I have opened so far, if you could please fix them :)

Thank you boatloads!!!

ADS.

If you have made any ad this year PLEASE make sure that you either update the spreadsheet or let me know you made it and tell me where it is if the ad is ready... and if you make an ad and place it, MAKE SURE that it goes where it is written on the layout table thing and print out the updated sheet. Thanks. 

Wednesday, February 13, 2013

People need to start doing things outside of this class hour or we will be lacking content and be rushed to finish at the end. Therefore we will come up with poor content (writing and pictures).  Interview at least one or two underclassmen for anecdotes to make the articles historical. You have to make the arrangements yourself. Take interesting pictures of underclassmen. (science lab, culinary, auto shop, outsie at lunch are the most interesting) Anything were they are actually doing something other than sitting in a desk and smiling at the camera.

For those people having underclass layouts, you need to take some pictures soon. You also should place all of the student pictures immediately so that you can determine who is missing. You then need to arrange to take the missing people pictures ASAP. They will need to be Photoshopped over an existing student picture and background.

Eliza, Marissa made a list for you of 10 freshmen that are missing.

Lane- Pages 92-93 are "Days in the life of Shoes?" What actually is the idea?

Lane- Off Campus layout-You might want to start accumulating some interest pictures and stories soon. They are sometimes hard to come by.

Austin-Cave Club You may want to compile some pictures from Mr. Bodenhamer and interview others beside Sandi.

Isaac, Mielle, and Ashley the choir and band layouts should be completed by Feb 26th even though there will be more content later from spring festivals and such. I talked to Mrs. Tunnel and told her that you would be coming to interview her for the articles. Also interview at least one or two others in band and choir for anecdotes to make the articles historical.

2nd Deadline

The deadline for the following pages is Tuesday, Feb 26th.

Pages 34-63, 66-67, 70-71, 82-83, 84-85

Fall videos will also be due.

This means all the articles and captions should not only be done, but peer edited. All pictures, quotes, and content should be present. If one item is missing you will receive a ZERO for the grade. Use the deadline checklist to make sure it is ready to be edited.

Isaac Reichner

Hola!
I'm here right now (Monday) and editing. I think the Spirit Week layout is officially done. Unless we changed the fonts? But since we are no longer in the same class, I will be working on it during fourth period and blogging to you about my success! :)

Madison

Tuesday, January 8, 2013

Opening and senior layout backgrounds are due Thursday Jan 10th.

Kalea Winter Formal is due Thursday.

Lane- endsheets are due Wed. Jan 9th.

Madison and Isaac need to split the layouts for editing the copy and captions.

We will do preflighting today.

Austin G.- Boys Soccer video is due Friday

Ashley we need a boys soccer intro of 15 seconds by Thursday.
Here is a request from Cowabunga. If you are interested let me know.


Hi Mike,
I wanted to touch base with you about a challenge that I have.  Our regular video guy for taping of the Cowabunga show is looking to “retire” from doing it.  I am fielding people that I know to see if anyone has any recommendations for someone to replace him.  The job is to tape the 3 shows and then edit as needed and then create a DVD.  (I have past year copies to show someone what has been done before)  On the offhand chance do you know of a student who is interested in video who might want to take this on as a project?  Maybe a senior project?   We do sell the DVDs and we could talk about some kind of compensation or split, but its not a huge money maker.  Let me know if you have any ideas – thanks,
Diana
