Football Programme Covers - Extension Over Different Teams

Joe was really pleased with the Liverpool cover, but suggested that the managers names be moved to the top of the squad list to they'd be aligned and make the lists more balanced.

With this in mind I re-created the layout for Everton, Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday as shown below. Joe had already sent me a rough outline for the drawing on the Everton cover, so I could re-position the text accordingly. The much shorter length of the text for the Sheffield Wednesday cover makes the word a lot taller in order to fill the full page width - although this is something that we'd consider making smaller again if it lessened the effect of the illustration. These are two reasons why it was important to develop a grid that had a lot of rows, as it makes it easier to deal with problems like this.






















I'm now waiting on Joe finalising the illustrations for the front covers.
