Sketch Story

Homework 7 & 8: Sketch 2

Start working on your idea for this sketch. Come to class with with:

  • The data you are going to use (remember to go data shopping!)
  • The audience you want to make something for (remember "general public" is an unacceptable audience!)
  • Good but not required: one abstract word in your data story that you need help representing in concrete ways ("inequality", "hate", "asylum", etc.)

Finish your sketch.

 

Homework 5 & 6: Sketch 1

Come to class knowing what dataset you are working on, an outline of the story, and a sketch of what you want to make.

Finish your sketch.

Write up your project on the class blog. Start with a summary sentence in the form: "The data say ________. We want to tell this story because _____." Include a 300ish word summary of your data sources and why what you made is an appropriate and effective way to tell the data story.
