Collage 2

Elements & Principles-

I used the principle of contrast with the orange Syracuse logo on the back and white background.

 

You can see the principle of emphasis with the logo. It is the point of highest contrast.

 

The players at the top create the principle balance because each player takes up roughly the same area along the top.

 

Number 22’s stick creates a line to the Syracuse logo in the opposite corner.

 

The logo creates the element of shape. The letters are 2-D and create the square shapes.

 

The drop shadows create form for the players. The shadow makes them look 3-D.

 

You can see color in the players’ uniforms. Orange is a secondary color.

I can see texture in the wrinkles of the players’ uniforms.
