Caught Our Eye

With rising student populations and limited space, yearbook staff members often find themselves trying to combine several topics into one spread. The Tiger staff took a hands-on approach and used umbrella coverage to cover five different topics in one spread by introducing how different programs allowed participants to demonstrate their skills by playing guitar, becoming a barista, etc. The copy flowed well from one topic to the next and the photos played off of each other with their students engaged in activities. This alternative approach to coverage worked well and provided a strong example of how to increase coverage without sacrificing space.
