Assignent III: Proportion/Emphasis And Eye Movement

I have an 11:00 meeting so I may be late. We will be using the same shapes as we did on the previous assignment. You can get started with your sketch books if I am late.

Instructions: 
We have a 2 for 1 project here, it is essentially 2 different pieces to create that will be presented as assignment. 

The instructions are basically the same for each however in one piece your subject will be 'Proportion' and the other 'Emphasis'.

Proportion: This indicates the relative visual size and weight of particular graphical elements in a design composition. 

Emphasis: Making a specific element stand out or draw attention to the eye. Emphasis can be achieved in graphic design by placing elements on the page in positions where the eye is naturally drawn, by using other principles such as contrast, repetition, or movement. Bold and italic type provides emphasis for text. Graphic elements gain emphasis through size, visual weight, color, complexity, uniqueness, placement on the page, and other features.

In addition to clearly communicating the respective principle of design, you must also move the viewers eye to 3 points in the work.
