October 1-4

Several pages are due Friday. Do you need help?


Fall break yearbook session?

Can you help with Makeup Photos on October 24? A "B" day.

Volleyball_Thursday after school. Set up with Coach Morrow.

This week:
1. Make a folder on your computer.
That becomes your computer.
Know the computer number.
2. Get your photos from camera SD cards or flash drives onto computers. 
3. Back up your work onto one of the four yearbook computers. Use one of our flash drives. 
Flash drives will be deleted regularly. Always use the same computer for backup. 
    Computer 1 keeps pages 1 - 44
    Computer 2 keeps pages 45 - 89
    Computer 3 keeps pages 90 - 134
    Computer 4 keeps pages 135 - 176
Do you know how to eject a flash drive on these Macs? It's different.
4. Place the page folders you are working on in the pages working folder on computers 1-4. Someone needs to make the pages working folder today.

If you have a deadline before the end of November, you should have already done most of this:

If you are working on pages, do the following. Always do first three steps exactly this way and in this sequence:
1. Make a new folder and name it ppage number. That translates into p32 if your page is page number 32.
2. Put only the photos you will use for this page in the page folder.
    If you are using a Photoshop template for your photos, copy that template into your folder also. Think of the Photoshop template as a photo.
3. Make an InDesign page and name it (using file>save as) the page number. That translates into 32.indd if your page is page number 32. Never change the .indd file extension.
4. Place your photos in the InDesign picture boxes on your layout.
5. Type your copy. That's journalism jargon for text, words, names, etc.

You need pictures and words on your pages. Ask yourself, do I have them? How can I get them before my deadline?

Missing a deadline:

10 point deduction from your 9 week grade.
5 points for each day after that. Maximum 30 points per 9 week.


I have photos............
I have candid photos from the Academy Photo shoot. Several freshmen photos. 

I have VIP photos, HCA photos, dance class photos, cheerleaders, library renovation, miscellaneous student photos, and Watkins (art class photos) on a DVD. I probably have some others, like culinary arts.

If you need photos that I might have, do this. 
Write your name and the computer you are using on a piece of paper. Tell me the photos you need and about how many you need. For example, if you are doing the SGA officers page or the other class officer pages, tell me that's what you need. I have those.

Sports pages. Team photos-use the team name sheet.

LOG OUT!!!!!!!!!!

Selling yearbooks? Order forms through advisories....when? How many per advisory?
I'm thinking 10. After fall break? Who will work on this, as in getting them to advisory teachers on the Wednesday we return? Each of you has an advisory teacher, so you should be responsible for yours.
