I thought that this image was great. I really liked the contrast between the black image and the white background. They created our lungs out of trees which I thought was creative. The poster is for awareness of the destruction of trees in the Amazon rain forest, so the play on; tree's provide air and the lung I just thought was brilliant.

What attracted me to this piece was the humor behind it. It is an advertisement for Neosporin. I just thought it was clever the way they used a childhood game that everyone can relate to, and make him all healed because of one simple product Neosporin.

This is another student work from CMYKmag.com. I thought this website was very inspiring and a good resource for me. What attracted me to this piece was the use of the color along with an actual photo. The rainbow really carries my eye down through the image. I also like the hand written type face, it seems effective with the hand drawn rainbow.

What attracted me to this piece was the use of color, it has a dramatic effect in this image. It is all black and white except the hints of yellow throughout, I thought this neat. I also like the way that they words pile up to so that you can't read all but you can still read some, so the message is still getting across.

What attracted me to this piece? First it was the way they used type to create the jump rope this drew me in to look more into the image. The caption on the side is very interesting the poster is a promotional campaign about how fear has become a social issue with our current political unrest and our country at war. This causing American to live a constant state of fear, this poster is representing that this fear doesn't have to rule our lives.

What attracted me to this piece? I like the color they chose and the aggressive lines through out the piece. I enjoy caffeine and need it most days, but we all know when we've had too much and I think the hectic line movement does a good job implying the feeling. I also like the hand drawn type it goes well with the feeling of the cover.
