Outlined spreads

In order to highlight any errors in the design, it was essential that the design was to be seen as a whole. 










Error: kerning must be altered between the U and E, in order to ensure the letters are not lost in the crease.




Error: part of the Y would be lost in the crease. The text also takes away from the imagery as a result of its size.




Error: cropped image (Erin stated when showing her the current design that she did not like how this image had been cropped and that she would like the whole image to be present). 




Error: Patterned backgrounds do not coincide with the rest of the design. This was discussed with Erin whereby she stated that she still wanted them to be included. 





Error: as publications have to be devised in sets of 4 (for saddle stitch etc) the page number is down.


Resolving errors 

In order to resolve the outlined errors, key steps must be taken. 


  • Kerning must be adjusted where type runs into the crease. 
  • The overly large type must be reduced in size so that it does not take attention away from the imagery unless this is intentional. 
  • Cropping in which Erin does not like must be dealt with. 
  • The page numbers must be increased (this will be discussed with Erin).
