Classes

General Sessions

We are excited to have Tina Cleavelin joining us as our keynote presenter. Anyone who knows Tina understands what value she brings to our workshop with her expertise and insights into current trends, coverage ideas, and how to help pull off a theme with a great design.

Staff Tracks

This Creative Track is designed for schools looking to create a fun and interactive book for your whole school to enjoy. The focus of this class will be based on getting coverage of everyone in the school and having fun creating a specific theme for your school. Basic and Advanced Layout Design will be covered along with theme development, caption writing, trends, coverage and staff management.

Schools looking to take their Yearbook to the next level in layout design, story writing and coverage should consider this Intensive Track. Staffs should be experienced in Mod-Grid Design and be already familiar with the CSPA/JEA Guidelines. Theme development will be very important as we carry this through the entire book.

Middle School / Junior High

This track is reserved for middle school and junior high staffers and advisers. Participants will learn the basics as well as the hottest trends for middle school. You will be learning with your peers and have lots of fun along the way.

Mini Sessions

Mini sessions will follow general sessions and staff sessions. They are designed to enhance the basic topic as well as touch on new areas that will help you produce a better book. Each mini session is appropriate for beginners and advanced staffers. Topics include business manager, typography, Photoshop tips, InDesign tips, team building, writing fun copy, creative coverage, managing deadlines, digital photography, and much much more.
