Sequence #1

Title Page

Entrance

Campus Map

Fleck

Dedication/foreword

Initially, I was extremely confused about this assignment and struggled with understanding it. After communicating with classmates, my TA, and professors I   came to an understanding and soon ideas began to flow. For my book, I am going to show the treasures found around campus. Personally, I love campus and feel at home here. One of my favorite activities is to walk around campus with my camera and try my best to capture the beauty around me. St. Edward’s never fails to impress me; therefore, I want to try to put photographs of all of my favorite places in a book. As of now, my book is titled “St. Edward’s Treasures” but that it a work in progress. The second page of my book will include a very short dedication/foreword. On the next two pages, I will include a map of the entire campus, while highlighting the spots I will focus on in my book. I will begin with the entrance and work my way into the heart of campus, showing sequence by following the paths. My locations are Fleck, Munday Library, Trustee, the Chapel, a view of the Austin skyline from the hilltop, Main Building, the waterfall, Jo’s, and the courtyard outside of Moody. These are all significant places for me. For now, I plan to dedicate two pages to each location. Depending on the location, I want to incorporate fold-outs, pop-outs, and similar interactive features. For example, I may have a photograph of the outside of a building and then the reason it is my “treasure” underneath a fold. Also, for the skyline, I plan to take a photography during the day and then at night or a gradient. I also plan to use a mix of film and digital photographs, however I am unsure of how I will specifically do that. I have some ideas but I do not know if they will work with the feel of the entire book. At the end, I have six more pages. I plan to use them but I will leave them blank for now. Just in case I am inspired while I am working.
