Once you have taken the pictures to fill up your yearbook, and you have the latest software to develop your yearbook, it is time to start thinking of yearbook themes. Your yearbook theme is important when creating your yearbook. It organizes your yearbook to help create a smooth flow from section to section.
When you are having trouble finding inspiration for your theme, go to some artwork for help. Artwork is a great place to start when trying to figure out a theme. Once you have picked your theme, say for example “thinking outside of the box” you can start to figure out what your cover and inside pages will look like. Remember, that you want to keep with your theme. While you may want to incorporate a lot of great ideas, that will only make your yearbook messy. With the example theme you can incorporate some wacky designs on the inside pages and also possibly include some fun facts about your students. Since the yearbook is for the student’s enjoyment, why not feature some outside of the box facts about the students! This will make your yearbook much more personal. For example, maybe a student in the freshman class works with on a camel farm. That is certainly something that is outside of the box. You can be as creative as you would like to be with your theme.
Your theme will help put your yearbook together with style. The options for yearbook themes are endless. If you want to break away from the theme you have chosen for your sports and club pages, that is okay too. You can to add a sports specific background to spice up your sports team pages but just remember to keep the sections consistent.
