Implementing your theme
Topic overview
This topic explores the several ways you can implement your yearbook's theme from cover to cover.
Cover & endsheets
These parts of the book set the stage of the theme. Carefully choose your photos for this part, as this truly determines what people remember the yearbook as. (ie. "Oh the year with the broken heart on the cover!")
Title, opening, & closing pages
Again, photos and words should revolve around the theme. Design these pages as freely as possible, as they further develop a theme.
Divider pages
Divider pages should contrast regular pages with larger type, elaborately made graphics, while encompassing the theme with the art. Poems work well, too.
Throughout the content
Colour, type, imagery, headlines, subheadings, pull-quotes, body copy, graphic flourishes, etc., all are great ways to implement theme into your yearbook. The more theme there is, the better!
