The 2013 Golden Bulls yearbook cover for Johnson C. Smith college blends typography, imagery, and layout factors in a striking manner. The ambitious Trajan-font quote, "Above the city lights shine the golden bulls," stands proud in shiny yellow, drawing on the spot interest and tying into the faculty’s identity. A subtly mentioned bull logo beneath the textual content, with decrease opacity, provides intensity without overwhelming the main message. The background with a photograph of the Charlotte skyline, edited to appear lighter and hazy, with a touch of yellow mild on one of the buildings. This yellow contrasts with the cooler blue tones, growing a balanced visible enchantment. together, those elements bring a experience of pride and a modern-day urban sense, showcasing the colorful spirit of the university.
