Deadline #1-
This spread was my first deadline spread which was due in October. What i really like about the spread is that it was the first spread of my own creation. I did it alone, took all the pictures personally, wrote the story and created my layout. something i learned in that spread was how to put a picture as a background, which was a great risk i took. Other risks were putting small pictures around the spread and creating the waterpolo ball with photoshop. I would improve this spread by filling the space and taking the pictures earlier (the pictures were taken in the same day).



Deadline #2
This the least of my favorite spread. This spread was my second deadline, i submitted it with my partner Micah Kennedy. There was nothing special about this spread but i really liked taking the superlatives candid shots, and choosing the superlatives was very hard to edit because both genders were far from each others. The spread was a challenge for me editing and taking the picture with Micah, i took risks in doing the superlatives on the last week before the deadline. From what i know now i would put more pictures and try to improve the quality of my pictures.



Deadline #3
This was my third spread, i really liked because no one had to do a story or write a caption. I learned how to design a layout for pictures only. I also took the risk in putting old and new pictures, tired to put the shy people in the spread which was difficult. The thing that till this second amazes me is that Karina, my partner and me wrote 2 quotes about friendship. After what i learned i think that the thing that i should change, is the background which Karina chose because it wasn't creative enough.



Deadline #4
The final spread. This spread was my last one and i made it alone. The spread talks about the current events that happened from where last year's yearbook stopped. This spread did not require a story but required a lot of reading. Lots of risks were there, most of them were about choosing the topics that i will put in my spread. The captions summarized the the topics. Since this was my last spread i don't think that there was anything that demands some improvement, the design had line that crossed the gutter.
