When first looking at all the information graphics I was overloaded with all the different ways to make them. I was also terrified of creating something with so much depth. However, by going through the process I began to understand how to make them. In my personal opinion the process was the most important part of this project. From gathering all the information, and sticking them to the butcher paper, to cutting out the parts that don’t work, was all crucial.
Even when making the paper protypes I would think about how to show an interesting yet cohesive way of displaying information in a visual form. The hardest part of this project was to take the information develop it into a system that the viewer can relate to while communicating new information. Other difficult tasks were to see how the info graph can relate to the spread. Simple ways of working the graph into the spread I used was using the same point size or typeface. Another approach was to use the colors of the icons within the spread, like the quotes or boarder. I also decided to use the magnifying glass to at the top to give the impression of taking a closer look into the snail, and a sequence that was repeated in the spreads.
