Rationale 1 & 2

Rationale 1

Contrasting graph(ic) and data visualization (Ihi) Intriguing (Wehi), "Brainy Graph"
The topic is public schools versus private schools, and the perspective of the poster is that the amount of resource pooled into public schools should provide better education for children. The issue is the difference in the amount of knowledge and thus opportunities offered between public schools and private schools. Main rhetoric devices used are juxtaposition and metonymy. The ihi component is the contrasting graph used as graphic, data visualization, and the wehi component is intriguing. A vibrant color theme was used to catch the attention of both parents and children. Flat design style is used along with a simplified illustration of the human brain instead of a graph to present data, for ease of comprehension, to make data more intriguing, to emphasize on the perspective and overall give a better persuasion to the audience.

Rationale 2

Data visualization (Ihi) Vibrant (Wehi), "$45 million versus $45 million times 4"
The topic is public schools versus private schools, the perspective of the poster is that the amount of resource or funding pooled into public schools are superior to that of private schools and therefore should provide better. The issue is the difference in the amount of knowledge and thus opportunities offered between public schools and private schools. The ihi component is data visualization, and the wehi is vibrant, fun, interesting. Main rhetoric devices used are juxtaposition and metonymy. An overall vibrant palette was used to catch the attention of both parents and children, with color for the books chosen individually from colors that are attractive to children. Elements on the public side have more vibrancy and saturation than those on private sides, albeit having the same shade and shape, inferring more fun. A graduation hat was added on the public side, implying more success.

Week 6 - Session 1, minor fixes and print out

Caroline commented that why not make the two piles of books the same, just different saturation/colors to highlight the contrast, and I tried that. Also changed the colour of the background slightly for better overall harmony. Matt commented that the shift of value between the 2 school parts is too much, private is like a 2 and public is like a 4? But I thought that's a good thing because what I want is for the contrast to show clearly. 

I tried drawing in some lines but I can't get the pattern of the brain right, and they ended up being "wishy-washy" like Matt commented. I also increased the saturation of all the colours so it looks more vibrant. Line width also fixed to be smaller

So I just lost the pattern altogether. The percentage between the red and yellow parts was also fixed to be more accurate with the number according to Matt. Overall I was satisfied with the final. Caroline commented on it having a Chinese feel.
