Today all of us at the Cabrillo Voice got together to put together our second issue of the semester. We all knew that we would have a better issue because of all of the experience we got from our first issue. Our first issue wasn't all that bad but we knew that we had plenty of room to improve the second issue. Emily our editor and chief at The Voice made templates made for us which made life 10x easier from the first issue. It did but it made my co-editor Tanya and I more meticulous about the layout of the sports section.
Tanya's story only had one real source and she wasn't able to contact that source so that left the sports section with a bit of a whole. She sure made up for not having the story by utimately creating and being the main editor of both pages. Sure I did all the digging for my story with interviews and arranging the pictures and Thomas did his thing with his story but it was Tanya that kept the train going. We gave her the ball and she ran with it. We supplied her with all the stories and pictures and she put them all together.
The pictures were clearer and she helped me label them with proper and clear titles. I got some good reviews for the last paper but I felt there were tons of room for improvement and I feel we really did with this issue. It took more time getting everyting put in their proper place but I fell that everything came out at least 10x better. Can't forget to thank Randi and Chad for assisting us with editing the pictures. I may be ultimately the one responsible for the section but like a good manager you are only as good as the team around you and I feel with the team I have around me we have the ability to keep moving forward in a positive direction.
