Journey To Class Explanation

My walk to class in the morning can truly be summed up by the title of my piece; it is a journey. As a student who lives a good five minute walk from high street on Frambes, the UDF on the corner is the sign that I am still 15 to 20 minutes from my destination. When it comes to creating my piece, I really wanted to utilize the Frambes street sign because it gave the viewer knowledge of where I was coming from. The goal of almost any photoshop piece is a combination of simplicity and depth, and yes, both are possible. I faded the image of the street sign in to the background view of the stadium as I inched closer to my destination. I then used the information given to me by my Nike Fuelband to report how far, how long, and how many steps I took to get here. I thought this information would be unique, and would give an adequate summary of my walk. Lastly, I titled my piece "The Journey" and placed that text in the center of my piece to resemble a movie poster, again fading that text into the background to give the piece more depth. And with that, my piece was complete.
