Meeting 28th Jan

Meeting 28th January
Apologies : Liz, Lindy

1. Deadline : Mike reiterated the importance of the deadline. Richard is going to print out a mock up of the book and needs all the finished pages by next Thursday. The pages must be produced in INDESIGN. Could everyone look at the blog for detailed instructions as to how to layout your page? If you are having any problems with this see Richard and we can go through it in the Thursday lesson. The printed pages will be brought to another meeting so we can collectively decide which order to set them for the final book.
2. Title: The title has yet to be finalised and some of us would like to reserve judgement until after the pages have been produced. “Grim Tales“ is the favourite so far as it seems to appeal to a wide range of styles. We searched to see whether it had been used before and it would appear that it was indeed the title of a TV programme featuring Rik Mayell. As this was 20 years ago it was felt that there were no issues with Copywrite and that the idea had originated from within the group.
3. Joe has not been able to find large gold Lettraset letters for the cover. Bess has a good gold pen or we could use the Foil method.

Action:
• Finish pages for next week
• Keep looking at the blog and making as many suggestions for the title as possible.
