Requirements
Must have
- Title: Intelligent Search
Subtitle: Managing the Intelligence Process In the Search for Missing Persons
The author is: Christopher S. Young
Image or images that brand the collection of intelligence used in search and rescue/missing persons
Nice to have
- Like the concept of an image of going deeper and deeper which each layer revealing new information.
The author has a concept of a picture that is blurry, one magnify glass reveals what the picture is, a second magnifying glass reveals even greater unexpected finding. Some designers may work with that concept, while I'm open to other designs that synthesize intelligence gathering and search and rescue/law enforcement themes.
Should not have
- No cartoons
