Final Design

Here is my final product called 'Randomeyes'. There are eight pages and a foldout poster on the reverse side.

I like how the title is broken up onto two lines. This makes the reader think for a second to work out what it says.

I like the angle that the eyes are at but if I were to do this again, I would pick a more eye-catching pair of eyes.



I love the second page. There is a lot whitespace but this allows the pair of eyes to be the focus point of the page. The eyes are larger than the other eyes on the opposite page and this creates juxtaposition. The diagonal positioning of the eyes makes the page a lot more interesting than if they were horizontal.

The third page has a collection of single eyes that had been drawn in different styles. The fact that they're all different and in varied sizes makes the page more interesting.



The fourth page is my least favourite. I don't like it as much because there isn't much contrast in size and positioning. It doesn't look as exciting as the other pages.

The fifth page has two large eyes that are quite bold. The second eye has textured colour that breaks up the harsh black lines. I like the small detail, on these two eyes, where a thin fine liner has been used. It gives contrast against the thick lines.



The sixth page mirrors the previous page. This creates two sets of eyes. I think that this is a good feature to have in the booklet because it strays from the norm of having each page separate or having a double page directly next to each other when open.

The next page of the booklet features a pair of Disney Princess eyes. These eyes belong to Rapunzel and because they are well known, they draw more attention. Therefore, I have placed them on their own page. This makes them quite striking, especially being vertical and having a large amount of whitespace surrounding them. The colour in this set of eyes is messy and goes over the lines. This is on purpose because it gives character to the drawing.



The four sets of eyes on the last page all belong to Lady Gaga. Lady Gaga has many dynamic styles. These eyes show the diversity of how someone can look, purely from the change in make up. Make up is important to consider when drawing eyes because it can potentially change the way the eye looks.

The eyes have been laid out in rows to show that they are the same eyes but with different make up. It's also different to the other pages because there are so many eyes on one page.



The poster features a large black eye, two pairs of light blue eyes and a title.

The title is small so that it doesn't clutter the page. The black eye is sketchy and characterful, perfect for the main focus point of the poster. The two other pairs of eyes are light blue so that they can be seen as a background and not part of the main picture. They also fall off the page to show that they are not as important as the black eye.
