Yearbook

Yearbook - info

'Oh look how you looked like!'. We decided to help with the design of the school yearbook, so that our beloved companions have something for future to cry and be nostalgic for.

Although planned already from the very beginning in the very end of 2005, it was not until April 2006 that we really started working hard on this. The approximate date of issue has been re-scheduled to Autumn 2007

Yearbook (almost) finished!

With very few pages left to be completed, the Yearbook is now entering the post-production stage, where it is going to be converted into JPGs and then nicely wrapped up in a shoal of PDFs. After that, beginning September 2007 ECP students & teachers will be able to order their own copy!

An intensive advertising campaign is being planned by me and Ilja, who has also been appointed to the post of the Yearbook Sales Manager, which means he'll make sure the ads get to the right place and to the right people, he'll command & conquer the transactiion and ordering system, leaving me free to finally take a break Razz. Thanks Ilja Wink!

Exam Break + yBook progress

For a very looong time, we showed almost no activity and the reason was the big big IB Diploma exams that we had. These exams are an important steps, that determine all our future steps, so they, of course, take precedence over, well, anything really except for drink, eat and sleap Smile, Fortunately, the exam session is almost over, OJ will finish tomorrow, Jakub Kovář and I have two more papers to go over the next week and Ilja's happy day will come next wednesday.

As soon as the biggest storm was over (two exams from Czech and the hardest Maths paper), I decided that the Yearbook should really advance somehow and so we now have 50 pages done, almost a half! Still a big way to go, though...

We also welcome a new designer and helper Amir Novák on board and already he has proven himself as a truly competent and efficient member, assisting with the design and some administration works. We'd also like to say a huge thanks to Mr. Vladimír Gavriněv, whose imaginative and truly professional photos has filled many of the newly created Yearbook pages.

So, check it out now! (And the funk soul brothers...)

Ybook07 Sneak Preview II

These previews are also available in high definition for download from here.

The Printer!

Today's meeting was quick and was mostly concerned with where, what and when to get photos from whom and who's when going to do what and why. Jana's gonna get more pictures, Ondra and Kuba are getting ready to work over the weekend, Tomas will be getting all the questionnaires finished - hopefully - and will be taking tutor group photos with me this wednesday.

Today, The Printer has announced us a reasonable price (228,50 Kč - 96 pages; 254,20 Kč - 112 pages, both version hard-covered). Yes, after weeks of waiting, we now officially have a printer!

One/Third

This week's work was dedicated to the yearbook and 9 new pages have been introduced, reaching 33% in the design stage. The following sections were enriched:

teachers
front cover doublepage + two pages
students
former year six photos - one page
events
skiing trip doublepage, elections and bbq doublepage
eca & cas
ping pong and cricket - one page

Also, a second preview is planned and will be soon published in mid-October.

New Ybook team member

After a tiring first school week, we are back in action and we are welcoming Tomas Duong as a new member of the Ybook team. Put in the charge of re-doing the questionnaries, though having a reputation of a lazy-fella Razz , he proved to be surprisingly efficient, collecting data from 4 tutor groups the same day. Good job Tom!

Meanwhile, we have successfuly contacted a printing service and are awaiting the announcement of the projected price. Hope it's not going to be :jawdrop: -high

Yearbook Preview

Yes, I know. The Preview is released before the start of September, but I had to hurry up, because tomorrow I'll be printing them out, so why not publish it right now? So why wait? Five new pages to be seen, all in 150dpi resolution.

And heeere they come!: PDF
