Graphic Design Final

So to start off this project with my original design, I began by using my own photograph of Seattle as the background. To follow this I used a picture of my eye, I then made that picture black and white to go with the dark background. After that, I used the art history brush to blend the eye in a little more, then I applied a gradient filter to blend it in just a little bit more. To get a little creepy I colored the eye black, leaving a small speck of light to create a more realistic effect. Then I place a picture of myself and then turned that black and white as well. Then I blended in the sides and part of the face because the idea is not for it to be a picture of myself, but to be a symbol of a stranger. Then I put the text “Keep an Eye Open” to create the theme that someone could be watching you. Then I applied red lines going from the eye to the text and various other points for a simple effect that just looked cool. Then I applied my photography logo to the bottom of the background. To revise, I used the same technique as for to place two pictures of my eye instead of one to put the eyes above the city. I then took out the picture of myself on the side after receiving feedback from my peers. I also changed the text to say “Keep Your Eyes Open.” For the most part I felt that the draft design was pretty good as I the people who gave me feedback seemed to really like it. With that being said, there wasn’t really much I wanted to change. But I feel the final design looks much better overall and much cleaner. keep-an-eye-openFINAL.jpg
