Cover Design by ___________

(Be discreet. Your name is NOT the emphasis. Make it clear, but quiet)

Just because not much is required of you on the back cover, does not mean to leave it empty or blank. Be wise with your artwork and your design.

ALSO: THE CLASS MOTTO COULD APPEAR ON THE BACK INSTEAD OF FRONT. It is up to you.

4. Your program cover must include some sort of visual art addition that is created by you, for this work. This could be a photograph that YOU take, or a collage of many photos. If you choose to use photos, think about what you are taking photos of and how it relates or adds to your design. You could take photos and then turn them into paintbrushes, then using photoshop you could create an artistic visual combining them. You could even create an artistic visual only using photoshop and nothing else. It will be your choice. Just make sure whatever you choose corresponds with your overall design.

5. Do not put ANY type within 1/2 inch of any edge.
6. No images will be taken from the Internet.
7. Optional: School colors? Do you think it important? Mascot? If you choose to include a Pegasus make sure to include one from around campus.
