- PDF option
- What is the function of the PDF? What does Duncan want it to do?
- Getting the copy and the concept down means that we can move forward with the process asap
- Each spread needs signing off once the type is set
- By easter, we need as much content as possible
- The extracted Leeds College of Art logo needs to be in the center at the bottom of the back page
- Name of the course and year date etc need to be featured right at the front of the yearbook.
- Consider the scale of the font. How does it work across varied sizes of screen?
- We need to use CMYK safe colours in case people decide to print it
- It needs to be 210x210 or 420x210 in size
- It can be made up of double page spreads, single page or a mixture of the two
- The resolution needs to be 72 - 100dpi
- We need to remember to check image sizes so that the PDF file size isn't massive
- 5MB is the maximum PDF size allowed
- At least one spread needs to include the college contact details
- The overall outcome needs to link to the wider college brand somehow
- The photography shots need to be detailed and it's better to do all the photography on the same day so that they are consistent
- Any artwork needs to be referenced
Deadlines
- Images need to be done by easter
- 22nd April is the content sign off and this needs to effectively be a working proof
Duncan also gave us some more relevent information about the course;
- He'd prefer not to have a page per person
- We need to sell the course and the experience
- The target audience is students and employers
- What makes the course great? Colour, drawing, visuals, hands on, studio culture
- There are 62 students
- He's happy for us to take control of the imagery
- When we want things we need to specify the file formats to the last detail
- He'd like to include hyperlinks out to relevent elements
- Good times to have meetings are wednesdays and fridays
