Fine Art Yearbook: Meeting w/ Lorenzo

This afternoon the group and I sat down with Lorenzo to have a quick discussion over the quote for the Yearbook.

Overall, the meeting was very useful and quite positive with Lorenzo doing some behind the scenes leg-work over the course of the week. Hero.


The main points that were discussed included:

01. Reduction of required units to 500 (with a view to top-up)
02. Paper stock to fall in line with standard 120gsm, however...
03. 90gsm is a possibility should the overarching budget balance out
04. Foil cover should stay as it is a primary 'requirement'
05. Out of budget costs could be covered by fund raising
06. Due to the way Duffield set up, 96pp would be cheaper or...
07. 108pp is currently possible without any additional cost

In the grand scheme of things, this should bring the job within budget although if Fine Art require more than they can afford then top up costs can be part funded by student fund raising.

All in all, this seems like a very logical step forward and I am happy with the progress that is being made.
