PROJECT 1 PASTA GRANNIES:
An infographic poster for ONE recipe selected from Pasta Grannies. Study one video, break down, and chunk the preparation and cooking process into an instructable poster. Try to capture each Grandma’s personality and unique dish identity in your poster as part of the narrative structure.
These infographics present complex information quickly and clearly, with symbols charts, and diagrams. With an information graphic, computer scientists, mathematicians, and statisticians develop and communicate concepts using a single symbol to process information.
Your job is to transmit a set of instructions and at the same time educate the audience. Infographics should be fun, it should simplify the context while representing information graphically. Because “A picture is worth a thousand words”. Yours should reflect the following:
To transmit or communicate a message.
To present large amounts of information in a compact and easy-to-understand way.
To reveal the data. Discovering cause-effect relations, knowing what’s happening. T
o periodically monitor the evolution of certain parameters.
You will develop an infographic to communicate a concept, topic, or idea - IN THIS CASE A COMPLETE SET INSTRUCTION TO A RECIPE.
The infographic should take viewers visually through the information you want them to learn or know. Based on your infographic the audience should be able to learn through viewing and interpreting the various graphical information and text. You will be required to evaluate what parts of the topic, concept, or idea are most important to tell/demonstrate and ask how you would represent each piece of information best.
You will also decide how to graphically represent the most salient facts about your topic, concept, or idea for student learning. This includes the finishing outcome which could be a slick animation or even a rough stop motion. Theoretical (Information Design Framework) Information type Device Principles (LATCH etc) Aesthetics i.e: isometric, simplified illustrations Requirement: You will need to reflect the following (assessment criteria): Practical - photo editing/illustration software

Reflection:
This project is very new to me as I have never made an infographic poster myself before. It was an interesting journey, I had fun sketching and learning about Italian's culture and the intricate notes that we have to be mindful of to make a delicious dish. Although I went through a lot of obstacles with this project as I had to travel to Japan for my Intercultural Design Module. Most of us had to submit our proposal earlier than the initial date because we had to fly on the deadline itself. I was occupied with having to finalised our visits there and other than that, the line in Japan was very bad for me that it was difficult for me to import and export my assets. I had to redo multiple times which led me to waste more time, I had higher expectations before this task started but due to the clash from the Japan trip I could only do my best at the time.
