Yearbook Production offers the student the opportunity to contribute to his/her own yearbook while learning about book production fundamentals, commercial art, and journalism. The course is designed to enable the student to gain skill in layout design, interviewing techniques, copywriting, cropping, and content coverage. The student will be involved in decisions concerning theme, format, photography and design of the book. The majority of the year will be spent in actual book production and meeting deadlines. A few students will be selected to learn Aldus Pagemaker on the Macintosh and will be responsible for creating the actual pages on the computer. Because of the heavy emphasis put upon individual responsibility, students should be self-motivating and academically high achievers. The students will also be involved in the selling and distribution of yearbooks. An opportunity to evaluate the book and make improvements will be provided at the conclusion of the course.
