How to do Everything on Your Own

How to do
Everything
on Your Own
What Type of Yearbook?
Be realistic about how much time you will be able to
spend on the project. We can guide you at each step,
but what you can achieve will depend on your time.
The design part of the task can take 20 to 50
hours, so consider using our silver option, where
we produce the design for you using the text and
pictures that you supply.

If you really do want to do the design yourself, then
our Yearbook Creator Software will give you the
most control, while using our Online Editor would
allow you to get help from others if they have a
few hours to spare.
Choosing a Design
You could choose a template where you do
not need to collect individual comments from
everyone – this could save you around 10 hours.
If you do want to collect comments, you may
be able to get support from tutors and class
representatives for that part of the project. Also,
talk to us for ideas and support. For example,
if you can get each student to type their own
comments, then this will save you a task.
Keep it Simple!
Don’t try to do too much, overcomplicate things
or be too ambitious. We will help ensure your
yearbook is really good!
Set yourself a time limit and stick to it – you will
have other commitments in the run-up to exam
time, so do tasks early. Some of the most effective
yearbooks utilise a really simple design with just a
few photo pages.
* Can a teacher help you? Can your head of year create a yearbook committee
for you and set roles and responsibilities for you all?
