learner survival guide final piece

Although this piece has the exact same graffiti as the white wall design it has been repositioned and enhanced to make it look as if it is sprayed on the wall. Another change in this piece I expanded from my white wall graffiti/doodle design by changing the background to a more urban landscape which i preferred over the white brick wall as it gave a more relatable and natural look when the graffiti was applied to it. I also chose a different copy line for this piece 'where vandalism becomes valuable' which is similar to the one in the white wall design but has more of a meaning behind it as i looked into vandalism in worksop and soon came across tones of links which reported a number of attacks on the worksop community-http://www.nottinghampost.com/Vandals-hit-Worksop-streets/story-12230982-detail/story.html and http://www.retfordtoday.co.uk/news/is-that-was-you-call-gratitude-1-3462206 both give examples of the youth letting there frustration out on the Bassetlaw district and my copy line tells them that nnc is the place for them to take all there negative energy out and create something productive. The copy line also has a varied font which goes from a font which is blocky and boring to a fancy font which shows the viewer the change of mind set they will have going from boring and destructive to interesting and constructive.
in my final piece i used many processes which include the skewing of the text and the graffiti, fade tool within the layer of the graffiti and the copy line to make it look as if it was sprayed on the wall, the mirror tool so the background could mirror from front to back page (i did try it without but wasn't as affective) and the font tool which gave to multiple affects on the copy line which gives me the change in fonts as explained above.
Overall i chose this piece as my final one as it refined everything from my previous designs and i gave the overall piece a meaning behind it. Although the piece isn't the best technically as i didn't use my full skill set but it is the wist impact full and effective because it speaks to the majority of our target audience which is 16-19 year olds in nnc due to the fact that we all know about worksop and the things that go on but my final piece shows them that nnc cares and creates better people.
