Eagle Eye Design Competition

The Eagle Eye film is based on the concept of "big brother" and how he is always watching. This includes the potential danger of technology. It reflects that fear through the stories of two characters. For the premiere of the film, a design contest was held in which students were asked to submit a symbol, or other design that represented the film. The only direction that was given was to watch the trailer and then interpret the film in a visual way.

My entry consisted of two pieces. First, the poster to the left that depicts the feeling of fear knowing, although we cannot see these people, we know they are constantly watching us. The silhouetted figures and thick window panes reflect the trapped feeling that exists in this state of fear.

The second of the two entries is consists of logotype in which the unseen people that are "everywhere" are silhouetted in a blur behind the films logotype. This sort of suggests an other worldly feel. It also possesses an X-Files feel with the figures not completely rendered.

I ended up winning second place in the competition with the poster design. This is really exciting to know my design will be presented at the premiere of a real feature film. Eagle Eye is even a DreamWorks picture which is an incredible opportunity to even get the chance to be involved with.
