How to control the number of picture albums
The P number of an album is one of the most headaches in making an album. It not only relates to the cost of the album, but also directly affects the reader's feeling. Too many P numbers can make readers feel tired, while too few P numbers seem crude and fail to achieve good publicity. So, how to control the number of Ps in the album? This article gives you a few suggestions.
I. Don't dwell on P numbers for the sake of comprehensiveness
Some people think that the more P numbers the better, but this is a misconception. When making an album, we must first consider the subject and target audience of the album, so as to calculate the reasonable P number of the album. We should not seek comprehensiveness without neglecting the essence.
For example, if it's a brochure showing new products, it's best to keep only the most critical introductions of each product, without adding inconsequential images or text. Because people don't like to read too tedious albums, they also feel that it's a waste of their time. Therefore, we can properly reduce the number of pages of the album, so that the content is more refined.
II. Image to text ratio
If there are too many pictures and too few words in an album, the space will expand accordingly, may even exceed the budget, and it will be difficult to attract the reader's attention. Therefore, when making an album, we must pay attention to the proportion of pictures and words.
When we master the ratio of picture to text at 1:1 or 2:1, we can make the album both visually appealing and textually interpretable. In this process, we can increase or decrease the proportion according to our own judgment.
III. Using pagination to control P-numbers
Normally, we can use the pagination of the picture book to control the number of P. For example, we can expand the layout of each page so that there is more information on one page. Or add a new layout to the design to frame the original layout to achieve the effect of coverage, thereby reducing the number of P.
However, in order to achieve a reasonable number of Ps, pagination should not be excessive. Too much pagination not only increases production costs, but also makes the album look very bloated.
Conclusion
Through the introduction of this article, we can draw a conclusion that controlling the number of P in the album is a very complicated thing, we should make it purposefully when making the album.Picture AlbumInstead of randomly increasing or decreasing the number of pages as a blind person does, it will save costs and improve publicity.
