yong joon:

I understand where u went with the scale change but i cant see the white on blue background very well. I definitely see the background wash texture as water but I think that your type doesnt work with it now. Type accentuated the Passport solution, but seems very bland on top of the organic wash.

Im at a disconnect between the passport and this version.. I would maybe play with textures in the feet? just a suggestion, but it might add to it.. maybe the texture could resemble the different places he voyages to?

I still think u were closer with passport.. but that might just be me.

good luck

I definitely agree with Jared that the large foot could really make this poster great. I like the washed texture in the background, and type is not there yet completely. Maybe something with more contrast between light and heavy parts of each character. Very unique and original approach

Dear Yong Joon:

I like the water color behind, but i think it is making the type weaker. I really liked the first version, when it was stronger.

I also like the composition of the steps, but they seem to be flat... (do you remember that we suggested about adding them some textures??).

Great job anyway,

Best,


Gonzalo.

Hi Yong Joon, I am glad you are in our pool.

I agree with everyone about your poster. Your first version was much more interesting, minimal, original, made sense. I was just thinking for you previous version, what if you place your small black foot a little lower than your "blue book/ocean/sky" and your last horse shoe a little higher a little out of the blue. It might give you a slight change , stronger feeling of movement and at the same time you will be in the same abstract style of your poster. (just a suggestion)
