A two-row specimen grid of black tiles wrapped in cyan guide boxes, sizing the white French Nouvelle and Nouvelles mastheads across 4x2, 2x2, 3x2, 3x4 and 2x3 ratios.
Summary
The guide version of the French masthead specimen: black tiles outlined in cyan boxes with white "Nouvelle" and "Nouvelles" mastheads sized across the same set of aspect ratios.
Visual description
White page with the standard running header and footer and a left-aligned "TRANSLATIONS / FRENCH GUIDES" heading plus the note that cropped ascenders are acceptable. Two rows of black tiles, each wrapped in a thick cyan bounding box, carry white serif "Nouvelle" or "Nouvelles" mastheads scaled to fill each tile, labelled 4X2, 2X2, 3X2, 3X4 and 2X3, with a swoosh, "PLAY NEW" tags and a white "XXX." at the foot. The cyan keylines mark the layout bounds for each format.
Key takeaway
Mirroring the red "examples" sheet as a black-and-cyan "guides" sheet, so production sees both the finished look and the underlying bounding boxes for every aspect ratio. The two-sheet examples/guides pairing is a tidy documentation pattern.
Reuse notes
Use alongside the matching red examples slide. The cyan-box-on-black guide convention, repeated from the hero grid spec slides, gives the whole deck one consistent language for "this is structure." Reusable for any cross-format type spec.
