Van Tech ‘15
The ‘14/15 edition of the yearbook pulled out all the stops. The students decided to go with a mix of elegance and modernity in this book. The primary theme is Art Deco and pages were designed to follow a clean editorial look. Primarily white backgrounds with graphic line work, colour blocking and art deco patterns were used to keep the look consistent. The cover’s SVEPA material with contrasting debossing and gold foil stamping feels as good to the touch as it looks. The little touches like copper metallic ink in the grad section and printed onionskin overlays make the book outstanding. The student’s chose to feature a student (or a teacher) in each section of the book highlighting the achievements of the school’s community that many would not have otherwise known about.

Marshfield High ‘15“Moving Forward” was created with the concept of trying to go forward in a time of turmoil within the school district. It also showcased the great improvements that this young group of 6 junior editors, including the Editor-In-Chief, had made throughout the year. They highlighted students and their future journeys— whether moving on to college, or starting another year at Marshfield. The triangles act as arrows, guiding you through the book in a forward direction. They stayed on trend using geometric shapes, very large dominant photos and used PANTONE’s 2015 Spring Collection Palette to represent the year 2015 perfectly. This MAHISCAN Spring Edition was awarded Best of Show at the 2016 Oregon Fall Press Day.

Van High ‘14
For two high school editors of the small East Texas town of Van, creating a nationally recognized book was something of which dreams are made. But the 2014 Vandalite yearbook brought the nicest form of a reality check to its town. The 256-page book did the impossible. It merged the classic tradition of print with the ever-changing emergence of video in one publication. With the MovieBook on the front cover, the yearbook transformed the memories of the year into a video that students could watch over and over again. With the theme of “Yeah, that just happened,” the Vandalite covered the school year like never before. Not only was the yearbook a huge hit with the students and teachers, the staff were also featured on the local news. None of this would have been possible without the technology and amazing service FutureBook delivers!

Chilliwack Middle School ‘15
This book was created by a grade nine class. They chose the theme “On That Note” using a composition notebook as the basis for all the graphics and theme development. The cover included the school logo as a sticker, as well as some other stickers and doodles. The cover has rounded corners and an elastic band, just like a composition notebook students use. Each page, especially the divider pages, included doodles created by the students related to that topic or section. The page numbers were at the top right corners of the pages with a highlighter colour behind so you can see which section you’re in by the colour on the side of the pages. Pictures had a Polaroid style border, and were overlapping, with pieces of tape on some of the corners. The ideas was to make it look like a student had some pictures, taped them inside, and added their own doodles like students like to do in their classes when they should be taking notes. The book was well received and everyone loved it!

Ladysmith Secondary ‘14
The theme of our yearbook was “Super Heroes of Ladysmith.” Students were excited and it was well received. We included the MovieBook with videos of general info, a school dance, and Grad. When students realized that they could change a video to something they liked they were really excited!

Calvary High ‘14This book, envisioned and created by the Calvary High School Yearbook class, emphasizes the theme of connection, something that relates to the students’ relationship with the world around them, with each other, and with their Faith. A few strong elements in the book reflect this theme including an intro page which literally connects every student in the school. Beginning with one name, the students detail how every subsequent student relates to the name that directly precedes them, creating a chain of connectivity between the whole student body. The cover, which features a laser die cut of the word “Connected,” is designed to work in tandem with the endsheet beneath its surface. The die cut creates a window which reveals student life just below its surface and directly connects the reader to those students and the activity of the school, while simultaneously allows the reader to understand the strong sense of connection between the students themselves, in 2014’s class.

Kelowna Secondary ‘12
Our “tree” book’s theme was “Together We Grow.” It focused on how we’ve changed over the years and grown up. We secretly obtained little kid pictures of students and staff from parents and spouses and included those pictures with the “today” picture in sidebar questions that asked about the past, personal inspirations, and future ambitions. It was a great surprise to all when they found pictures of their past selves pictures in the book. The book itself appeared to be tree bark. It was so tactile with all of the cracks and crevices that a real tree would have. We made it much more personal by using actual trees from Sutherland Hills Park, our local conservation area, to create the cover and all of the raw wood backgrounds. To add to the big reveal in June, we also scented each book with pine.

FutureBook Yearbooks has reengineered the yearbook – and the yearbook industry
In my 10 years as high school yearbook advisor, I have never worked with a company that has provided me with the service, quality and pricing that FutureBook has delivered.

I was once skeptic of FutureBook’s offerings; they seemed too good to be true and I figured there would be hitches, so I held off making a switch. Well in to my second year with FutureBook, I wish I had come aboard sooner and I can confidently say there are no reasons to terminate our relationship.

It has been refreshing to work with FutureBook, as they have been game to try anything new we came up with. For all ideas we have had so far, in most cases the ideas were executed with a minimal difference in cost. We have made square books, landscape books, included fold-outs, onionskins, and started printing on the back of the end sheets and both sides of the slipcover. It has been refreshing to have this much artistic license, and the final product has always been impressive.

We have been very pleased with your service and especially the degree of personalization that you offer to our staff and students. The tree-planting program for each book we ordered was extremely well received, especially by the students at Senior School and the environmental stewardship committee.
