EDITORIAL ILLUSTRATION PROJECT

CLIENTMy client is the article about children being put in detention centers as young as ten years old. Many o�cials think that if given the right this would prevent many of the troubled youth around the area from getting in trouble in the future.

I really dont see a problem with the picture in this editorial other thenit is a real picture and the requirements are for an illustration.

SOLUTIONMy solution to the real picture was to change it to a picture of somethingthat shows that a child may be there. I was going to have a baby hand reachingout of the jail cell but I wanted it to be more of the thought of a child. So I thought a toy inside of the cell would work much better. I think it shows that the child actually plays in the cell and it just make you thinkof how young the kids could be in these situations.
