The two pictures on the left are my assets for the PS4 game cover. I used the quick selection tool and both of these images so I could remove the background. I went to the filter gallery and used the cutout filter to refine the pointy edges and make them smooth. I didn't take these pictures of Bear Grylls, I found these pictures on the internet. I wanted to make them my own to show off what I can do to create a great design.

Below are my designs which included Pierce Brosnan on the cover. I decided that they were not creative enough as it was just black and white. I wanted to show I can do more with the design and try out new things. Also, It was deemed to be too much like James Bond due to the images I used and the image of the gun.

These three prints that include Pierce Brosnan were too simple and have too much of a James Bond theme to it. While I was designing the prints, I found out what should be placed where and how I can use the white space. I added the threshold option to the images, but I didn't explore more colours and other themes rather than having an unintended 007 theme. I then decided to use a different main picture, I chose Bear Grylls to give a warm, tropical adventure theme. This now looks far from a 007 theme. I also added a map as the background of the poster so it didn't look plain and boring. Also I didn't want the picture of Bear Grylls to be out of place as it would be in colour. The colours of Bear Grylls needed to connect with the background. I also decided to give the title 'drop shadow' on Photoshop to give a 3D effect. This will show it is important as it is the title. Also, the drop shadow makes the white stand out.
