    The movie Life is Beautiful would not be a good film to show for the class. This is because the movie is like a comedy during a time which was anything but funny.

    Image Deconstruction The logo in which I chose to deconstruct was the emblem belonging to Chicago Park District. Multiple elements of design can be found within this logo. The first element of design that caught my eye was the even balance found throughout the entire image.

Each side almost appears to be a clear reflection of the other. Everything
