Friday Blog

OMG guys I can't believe it's actually over!! I've learned so much and I'm so happy I got to meet you guys! I was so nervous about coming in here and doing graphic design cause I clearly knew nothing but thank you to all of you who helped me keep my sanity in here (most of the time) thank you thank you thank you!! Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Johnston SOOOOOO much!! I'm out! :)

Learning

OK, so the newspaper is laid out. We are so proud of all of you for doing such a good job! So ... what did you learn? How did you improve as a newspaper designer? 

I learned a lot this week, and I really appreciate all of the help that was given along the way.  I learned that spacing out stories is a lot more difficult than it looks.  I learned that it is hard to think of good headlines, it is difficult to compromise on a masthead, it is nearly impossible to match fonts, and I LOVE GRAPHIC DESIGN.  I also learned a lot about InDesign, which will hopefully help next year.  THANK YOU!!

I have learned so much from the people here. I'm not saying that I didn't learn a lot from my teachers, but I feel like I learned just as much from the people here. Logan and Haley came in this class knowing much more than I did, and everyone else had a fresh perspective that really made me think twice about everything I was doing. I've used InDesign before, but I learned a lot of things about the program here that I never would have figured out if I hadn't come here. It was definitely worthwhile, and I'm really glad I came. Thanks for everything, guys. 

What I learned

What I learned is that graphic design people ROCK!  They have the coolest jobs and get to manipulate and create the entire paper.  Subsequently, they also get a lot of hate by the other members of the team.  Anyway, I know it takes a long time and a lot of hard work to create and layout news papers.  I really hope to continue practicing and will totally be here next year.  I'm thinking of doing graphic design again, but maybe not.
I learned a lot!  I knew just about nothing about laying out a newspaper, so it was cool broadening my knowledge of graphic design to newspaper.  Everything is so different than yearbook, but it was a challenge and it was fun.  It was fun meeting everyone...you're all really cool!!!  I'm sure to take a lot from this experience.  It was definitely worth it.  I hope you all have AWESOME publications next year!!!!! Thanks Mr. and Mrs. Johnston!

I learned everything about indesign, I was awful before but now I can layout a whole newspaper page, I still hate newspapers but I do respect the people who work so hard to make them. I improve a lot as a designer, but I think my attitude got worse because I constantly wanted to pop it off on people. But I'm great now. I'll miss everyone, but you'll see me grinding on the dance floor. PPEEEAACCCEEE!!!!!!!!!
