Color Me Design

Creating the colophon for Color Me was both an honor and a delight. Every staff member chose a color and gave a quote as to what that color meant to them/why they chose it. Working with less guidelines and more freedom made me feel even more confident in a design that I knew was all my own.

This clubs spread was another in which I was able to design with more freedom, not having to worry about as many guidelines for alignment or proximity. I think this is a great example of how versatile the design can become for the same content; this spread was much too strict before we decided to take a leap of faith and mix it up, making something that would pop and catch people's attention.

After 9 snow days, our staff was struggling to find time and get everything together. Making the best with what we had, I planned and executed a spread which captured the beautiful, unique experiences everyone has on their days off in the snow, and tied it all together with a picture from our Winter Dance (which is generally not an event we cover).

Interruption spreads were a new concept which were not part of my first yearbook experience. Each interruption spread took a break from 'normal' coverage and made space for events that wouldn't usually be covered. There were only 6 interruption spreads throughout our book, and working on this spooky masterpiece was some of the most fun I've had designing.
