Yearbook Blog #3

I interviewed Joe Bozeman and I interviewed him about his riveting scar story. Freshman year when joe used to play lacrosse as a goalie, Coach Brown, his freshman lacrosse coach, was warming him up before practice. Usually when you warm up a goalie you start out with slow shots and stick side high. When Coach Brown started warming Joe up he decided to shoot the ball really hard and make it a bounce shot. Unfortunately, Joe was not ready for this shot and the ball bounced off the bumpy ground (the field by the girls softball field) and hit joe right in the family jewels (if you know what I mean). Joe fell down immediately and "entered into the worst pain of my life" as Joe describes it. Joe didn't go to school for a few days and was still in a great amount of pain and it was until a week later until he go back on the lacrosse field. Joe also told me that moment made him not want to play goalie anymore and ultimately quit lacrosse for good.




I like how the right and left sides of the spread are brought together by the bleeding technique that this illustrator does. The dots that he uses set the tone of what the article is about and the dots bring your eyes to both the picture and the title which is the ultimate goal when you are creating a spread. The part that I would like to steal and use from this spread is the title bleeding into the picture. I like how the title bleeds into the picture forcing the border between the two to bend.
