Create an informative graphic that visualizes a travel narrative to be displayed in a web or
mobile device experience. Each group will work together and produce one infographic.

Design your information graphic for an audience of active web users, who seek fresh, topical knowledge experiences.

The entire essay must be represented in your final design. Consider which forms of visual
presentation best support the story. Expect several forms to be necessary in the design.

Together these forms must work in a cohesive manner to communicate clearly. Hierarchy, layering, and concise reading paths will assist the user experience.

Credit the author and book in small type (excluding the quotation marks): “Based on the essay by [author name], from the book State By State: A Panoramic Portrait of

America, edited by Matt Weiland and Sean Wilsey. Copyright 2008.”

Presentation
Create your full-color design using Adobe Illustrator and/or InDesign. Vector-based graphics allow superior flexibility when alterations and scale are needed. Do not use raster images (i.e. photos). Color and type should be critical aspects to the overall visual experience.

Final Deliverable
One 2,000px.-wide high resolution JPEG (suitable for web viewing i.e. at FastCompany.com).

Height is determined by you.
