      On the opening pages of the 2016 Trail, copy written by senior Art Director Austin Pruett clearly explains the staff’s ambitions with their striking book. “I knew exactly what to do to make this one ‘the one’ that will leave everyone talking.” The Norman staff’s execution of the theme “Up Close” is about as personal as it can get. The book’s entire look and tone is set immediately on the cover with an eye-catching portrait of student Lexi Audas in glowing Tiger makeup against a simple black background. The opening copy tells the reader that the year is “about zooming in and seeing what matters.” So the staff got “Up Close” by telling dozens of student stories, many of them accompanied by fun portraits that showed off the personality of Norman High.
