project brief:
Different audiences may interpret meaning in different ways. In order to successfully communicate a specific messsage one must understand how their audience will receive the message and design an experience that will best suit that audience. This type of design is critical in information graphcis. This assignment requires the communication of voting facts and statistics in an experiential motion graphics message.
statistc:
Almost half of registered unmarried women don’t vote. If they turned out in numbers, unmarried women would be the largest voting bloc and would be the deciding “X” factor in close elections.
stories:
01
Focusing on the fact that unmarried women could be a deciding factor in an election, I would exploit the simple fact that they are unmarried. Being unmarried insinuates a sense of independence and throughout history women have not necessarily been praised for such a characteristic until lately. Women need to embrace this self-sufficiency and make a difference in the world around them by letting their voices be heard.
02
After the long history of women being inferior to men and after a long hard woman’s suffrage movement, we now have the right to vote. The problem is that we are not exercising this right. Being young single women, who are independent with the capability of self-sufficiency, it is a shame to see that their/our voices are going unheard. Our grandmothers and great grandmothers fought so we could vote and be considered equals, we should not let them down.

great topic. this is really interesting to think about considering unmarried women are more likely to be economically vulnerable, and are among the first to be affected by economic policy.
how will you show this in an information graphic, how can it be expressed/experienced.
good topic, and leah's comment is really something to think about.
