## Caption

workflow | 2025 

L: a combination of blur, opacity, shadows, blur, and saturation helps me create create an illusion of depth within secondary elements of design or call-outs. a small outline on elements that originally had depth before being rasterized to two dimensions retains the intended shape of a logo or element.

H: I use contrasting primary and secondary colors draw the eye to a subject. lightly shifting the hue of a subject to a blue when increasing brightness and reducing saturation maintains the original tone and allows the modified subject to pair well with the original frame. when I break these rules and increase saturation, it creates a more playful environment, and allows for more vibrant pairings.

F: a shallow depth of field helps me guide the eye through a composition, and reduce distractions. unfocused images are much easier to layer text upon, and sharp contrasts in focus pair well with a physical subject on a digital background.

T: while repeating words and characters allow for high densities of information to be hidden within a design, the use of colors, gradients, and grain with textures from the real world help blend the disparity between what was taken on a camera and what was created on a computer.
