Yearbook Covers

Last week, we were given probably the most annoying project I could've thought possible. I made it through my creativity block just to stumble again. Our project....yearbook covers for the school. We had almost no rules for this project besides that it must obviously make it school related and to have, "Every Ending Is A New Beginning" on it. 

The school's mascot is 'the black tigers' so what I did for both of my covers was put tigers on them, trying to make it in a unique way....but how creative can you get with a school yearbook? For my first design, I wanted to stay true to my brand identity. So I found a cool picture of a tiger and used threshold on it, then filling in all of the white with the school's color of yellow. The font was the harder part. I'm still not 100% crazy about the way I have the fonts, it was hard to put two long sayings, "The Cuyahogan" and "Every Ending Is A New Beginning" on one small cover. 

For my second design, I used another tiger (Natürlich) but in this photo I just used the sides of the tiger and wrote 'The Cuyahogan" down the middle where there wasn't the image of the tiger. After that, I just adjusted image settings to it, to give it more of a glow and to bring out the oranges.
