From the Judges
We had a great time with this one, figuring out the images and related songs. It touched on a lot of iconic Beatles things, lots going on, but not too much. The more you look, the more you find. We loved the color and felt it was a great interpretation of the original yellow submarine piece. For an alumni magazine, it felt unique–not what you usually see. It's nice to see pop culture in an alumni magazine!
