So, I think I might have to adjust my topic to be a little narrower. I liked the idea of sticking with something money/budget related, and I found some cool stats from one of my favorite websites (my favorite because it's designed beautifully) The Knot (theknot.com).<div><br />
</div><div>I found some stats about wedding budgets and some about baby budgets (as in, how much babies cost their first year of life). I liked the wedding one, but there are already a bunch of infographics having to do with that, so I'm not sure. I couldn't find any baby budget infographics, so that one may be a little more original. </div><div><br />
</div><div>I'll figure it out and hopefully have something going by Tuesday!

I have some ideas for what I would like to do, and what I think would not only make a kick-ass infographic, but will also be informative and have a related application.<br />
<br />
My ideas are:<br />
<br />
-A step by step guide to a recipe<br />
Not sure exactly which recipe yet, but I could illustrate various ingredients, as well as demonstrate the actual cooking process. This could be applied in any cooking magazine, website, or book.<br />
<br />
-The Newspaper Production process<br />
Newspaper is where I got my design origins and I think it would be really interesting to illustrate the process how a newspaper actually gets printed. Taking the paper to the printer was my favorite part! Plus, I could illustrate a really cute little boy in a bowler hat screaming "extra! extra!", which would be pretty awesome.<br />
<br />
-Facts about Amusement Parks<br />
I found some facts online about amusement parks (their attendance, favorite rides, favorite foods, prices, etc.) and thought it would be a fun topic for a traditional infographic.<br />
<br />
Just some ideas for now, I am trying to think of more, but I am really interested in all three ideas, so I think it would come out great!Leah Ettenhoferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02283248276867188196noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453217888785210242.post-68961154430569734802011-08-09T17:39:00.000-07:002011-08-09T17:39:14.349-07:00Preliminary Case Study - Type Project<b>DISCLAIMER:</b> I was gone last week, and didn't get as much done on this as I wanted to, I had some trouble with the tools and could not get them to work. But I learned a little more about how to use them from my pal Whitney so I have a more defined direction now, and I will have my project ready next week!<br />
<br />
I don't have a lot of progress on my actual illustration, so I made a case study out of what I do have.<br />

Why are you doing it?</div><div style="font: 11.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;"><i>I am doing this type portrait of Taylor Swift because I feel that there are many words that can be used to describe her and her music, and I feel that using type for her portrait would be appropriate because she writes her own music, and that is what she is known for. This illustration could be used to accompany a magazine article about Taylor, or else as an illustration on one of her CD's or website. </i></div><div style="font: 11.0px Times; margin: 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px 0.0px;">2.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;">I am making this illustration to accompany an editorial that was printed in the Seattle Times that was about the possibility of bars in Seattle being open late, past the current limit of 2 AM. The article talks about how bars in Seattle could stay open as late as 4 AM, or else be open at the bar's discretion, which could lead to some bars being open 24 hours. The only other cities that allow this are Atlantic City and Las Vegas. This is an interesting article because it is the mayor himself who is advocating this, and he is saying that it will allow for an urban social atmosphere. Others think it will cause more drunks to be out on the streets at all times, or else turn Seattle into a party city like Vegas. I think that it will be interesting to pair this article to an illustration because it is such a unique situation and bar closing times is not something that mayors usually bother with. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">2.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;">With this illustration, I want to reach the readers of the Seattle Times, because this editorial was not in favor of the mayor's proposal. This article will receive more attention if there is an illustration accompanying it. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">3.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;">After reading this article and seeing the illustration, I want people to have the knowledge to form their own opinion about possibility of bars being open late, and looking past the "fun" aspect of that possibility and making a decision about whether or not that would be good for everyone. </span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">I think that a possible obstacle would be that people may think that it is not up to the city to decide when and where people are allowed to drink, or when they need to quit drinking and go home. Seattle is full of very independent people, and I think that this would be the biggest obstacle. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">5.

<span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">A key benefit that the audience will experience is that through seeing a funny illustration paired with an article, it could make them aware of something that they may not have known about before. </span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">6.

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 13px; line-height: 15px;">The reason why the benefits outweigh obstacles are because this issue is not receiving a lot of attention. If people really care about this issue, then the word needs to be spread to the masses. Although people may not believe that this issue is a negative thing, at least they will have an opinion and word will spread. </span></span></div><div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: 120%; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0in; mso-pagination: none;"><b style="mso-bidi-font-weight: normal;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 10pt; line-height: 120%;">7.

I wanted to do a portrait because I thought that those ones tend to look the best. I also wanted to do my illustration on someone who has influenced others with their words, because otherwise, it seems silly to do a type portrait if that person didn't have something to say!<br />
<br />
Here are my ideas:<br />
<br />
<a href="http://www.teemv.com/pictures/vfnum55s6WpfOvoFrO0zFeRJb48kJUR2.jpg">Taylor Swift</a> (Don't hate, I love her.)<br />
<a href="http://www.harrypotterrealm.com/images/author/jkrowling02.jpg">JK Rowling </a><br />
<a href="http://www.kozaczek.pl/img_users/1230677963.jpeg">Lady Gaga</a>? (It could be fun)<br />
<br />
Those are my ideas for now, but still not totally sold. Going to do some more research before I decide.Leah Ettenhoferhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02283248276867188196noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7453217888785210242.post-56664217454648493692011-07-19T00:37:00.000-07:002011-07-19T00:37:03.349-07:00Sketches for Editorial IllustrationI ended up choosing the editorial about the possibility of Seattle's bars being allowed to stay open past the hour of 2 AM, and the article even suggests that the bars could be allowed to stay open as long as they wish, even 24 hours a day, which is only allowed in "party cities" Las Vegas and Atlantic City. (This article was not in my original post, but I included its link in a comment to that post).<br />
<br />
Here are my beginning sketch ideas:<br />
<br />

I haven't decided which to go with, but they are all very interesting and could be taken many directions.<br />
<br />
I also found some cool editorial illustrations:<br />
<br />
This one about <a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4097/4742194551_4a6dd0754b.jpg">BP gas</a> and it's effect on the environment<br />
This one about being <a href="http://www.floatingbanana.com/artbackwash/octopus2.jpg">successful</a> in this bad economy<br />
And this one about the <a href="http://api.ning.com/files/7o7*uwQetpEazeEiPEXVGBdUDGjr*K1gmvf9E3t8z3we5nAEZGWRDYcHV*QHDtx2/AprilAllBarkNoBiteLRG.jpg">lack of action</a> within a occupation.<br />
<br />
