Meeting 04 with the Fine Art committee today as planned; the main purpose being to present/discuss cover designs and print quotations - as well as going over some fine detailing on the spreads and inside layouts.
To summarise concisely, the discussion resolved as follows:
General
01. Layouts of the inside spreads are looking great. Excellent to see how the colour is working... remember that you don't have to stick to alphabetical order if you do not need to.
02. It would be preferable to have one solid block of text for the introduction. Not two separate columns. (I agree here. This would be more professional and coherent with the rest of the copy throughout the document).
03. 108 pages is preferred by a country mile. Feature spreads would work well to break up the pacing of the publication instead of having an onslaught of 44 students work
Cover
01. The way it makes you think whilst trying to read it is conceptually strong, keep developing this.
02. Text off the edges is great as per first comment.
03. Text on spine should be in Courier New.
04. Definitely don't want images.

From here then, we need to complete the following in order to ultimately supply an inital final mock up ready for proofing:
01. Develop spreads for all students
02. Work towards a final cover resolve
03. Acquire studio photography for feature spreads that have now been signed off*
*Date confirmed and agreed as w/c 2nd May; aka. immediately after Easter.
