Feature Does Not Mean Fluff
Tan Ly, Financial Design Director Deputy News Editor, The Washington Post
I was very disappointed in this session. It said it was for yearbook/design/newspaper, but all the examples were of newspaper. Don’t get me wrong: there were some really neat ideas for newspaper, but I was expecting to see a few yearbook layouts. Most of the main points could be applied to yearbook and newspaper.
• The content should drive the design
• Designing takes planning, brainstorming, gathering information and collaborating with reporters, photographers, section editors and design editors.
• Dominant photos are the main visual draw for the page.
• Quotes can be used a graphic.
