Haven't posted in well... a while. Guess it never really dawned on me to post what I've been working on in college. But I'm going to start posting more, promise.

Anyway. Here's the beginning of that promise. It is for my Graphic Design I class (an elective, I'm studying to teach art). The project was to illustrate an event in history visually with only the date in numeric form as the written communication. We were allowed no words, but could use photographs.

For my piece, I chose the stock market crash of October 19th, 1929 (HA! I got the month in there anyway xP) and I guess I prefer a simpler vector style to the photography. The numbers were my teachers idea to tie in the stocks better, but I'm still unsure whether I like them.

Made in Adobe In Design
Photoshop CS3 was used to overlay the numbers and the gradiant at the bottom behind the date.
Time: Not long (don't tell my professor)
