Image only design:

Based on the feedback from the interim crit, I was encouraged to take the design forward of where the audience of the newspaper is throwing it away in rebellion to show they can make up their own opinion.

Using this self taken photograph in relation to photoshop, I managed to edit the image in the same style as the previous one to create an image only design. 
The threshold levels were adjusted to create the same effect as before, and using the brush tool, blood was added to the piece of design.
The shadows in the image appear as an over exposed photograph, which is quite effective to set the tone of the design, and the addition of blood to the image gives a sinister feeling. 
I find the piece of design emotive, and it is evident that the character is discarding the newspaper rebelliously, but it has had an effect on the person, as the blood still remains on his hands.

Again, I chose to print the design on newsprint as I felt it was fitting for the project, unfortunately the print didn't come out perfectly, and there were damages/creases in the paper stock. 
I shall re-print the image and submit it for my final design.
