Blog 18: 2-Hour Meeting Answer #3

1.  What is the best way to create a yearbook that reflects your student population?
2.  A really solid and committed editorial staff is extremely important to the success or failure of a yearbook.
3.  First off, the editors come up the whole theme of the yearbook. That in itself is absolutely huge. Second, they assemble the book. Photo editors choose the pictures that are decent, copy editors make the stories good, and the design editors make it look pretty on a spread. Lastly, without an editorial team that is committed to the book, nothing is ever going to get done.
4.  Talking to Elissa Fultz really helped me to see this. Also, from personal experience, I've put two and two together, and discovered that you need a strong editorial team to truly succeed.
5.  I plan to break down what everyone does individually step by step, and kind of put myself in their shoes.
