endgame

Hey this is Brian, I did another endgame cover n need feedback for it, and feedback on how to start the spread.  Honestly, this assignment is starting to aggravate me, because nothing seems to work.

This looks way too much like a quick Photoshop job, Brain. When we were talking about this idea for you, I came up with maybe a fun way of doing it. I was thinking maybe take a nice night out and walk by the Broadway theaters or anywhere by a theater and take raw pictures of the garbage. Maybe that would be cool? Nice raw image that you took.

I agree with Caryn. Photoshop isn't working as a medium here, it doesn't look natural. Taking an actual photo will give you the chance to arrange everything the way you want.

I agree with both of you.

Brian, some projects come easy to all of , but some—not really, but believe be, we all learn more and become better designers when we finally solve the problem. Keep working, thinking, and questioning—you are working on YOUR pieces of design. All of us are very supportive. Although you might think that you are stuck, in fact— are progressing.

Oh, I write quickly without checking. Looks like it's impossible to edit what you already sent.
Well... : (

@Caryn that is a good idea

@omar is the idea at least legit?

yo b, try this, get a black piece of paper, and have glue on it, then start clipping and cutting paper to create like a collage/texture and pattern for trash.
Also try this, pretend you were blind, and you never knew what trash looked like, anything you already know what it looks like, throw it out! think beyond your eyes.

idkk just random suggestion! lol

hmm, but b, instead of thinking visually what endgame is, try to think towards your concept. Break out of the cliche way of thinking for trash and sorrow! What can you do to make something happy look sad?? thats not normal, but thats why things lke this can be visually interesting. thinking too directly and literal has been done before. Use your own personal style, and think beyond what you visually know about anything! and solve this problem from an ENDGAME!
