With yesterday's votes... we have a winning theme. Apps will be this year's yearbook theme.
1- Yearbook Position Form
You are not locked into the positions you show interest in. They will be discussed with those interested to see whom will fill the role.
2- Post-it Notes
You need one post-it note. On it, write the five things that you feel are 'must-have' pages in the yearbook. Post it on the board with the collection of other sticky notes. Look over what other people felt were 'must-have' pages, then review your ladder from last class. Is there anything you left out our would want to change?
3- Learning Photoshop
Now that we have a theme, and now that we have the class roster's finally pretty ironed out, we should be able to actually start working on actual projects instead of just daily assignments. Your first task will be to design something that will aid you in your sales and probably your photography assignments as well. In order to do so, you will need to know a bit about Photoshop.
I know some of you are already pretty familiar with Photoshop. That's great. However, you still need to skim through the content, as often people only know the parts of Photoshop they use and not the whole of it. Sometimes they have a different way of looking at it, or a more detailed explanation that may reveal attributes or characteristics you weren't aware of.
