Final Project: Infographic Video Animation

INSTRUCTION:
Based on your FLIP group topic research, create a basic video animation.

DESCRIPTION:
Using a structured design framework, produce an animated infographic to present information to a target audience with the aim of:

• Creating awareness (e.g., Global Warming, Recycling)
• 
  
• Explaining a process (e.g., "How-to" videos)
• 
  
• Defining a concept (e.g., "What is Fast Fashion?", "What is the Color Wheel?")

You may use any time-based media and software, incorporating photography and vector imagery.

Design Considerations:

Organization Principles: LATCH (Location, Alphabet, Time, Category, Hierarchy) and content organization

Aesthetic Principles: Animation principles

Cognitive Principles: Principles of visualization

Output Expectations:Your presentation must align with the assessment rubric and include the following elements:

• Show causality
• Use multivariate graphics and visuals
• Integrate words, numbers, and images
• Ensure content clarity and accuracy
• Maintain visual accessibility
• Utilize multiple charts
• Avoid de-quantifying data

REQUIREMENTS:

• 
  
• Video resolution: 1920px x 1080px HD
• Duration: Minimum 1.5 minutes, maximum 3 minutes

SUBMISSION:

• Upload a 3-minute (±) animated infographic to YouTube (unlisted).
• Compile and upload all digital files to your Google Drive folder.
• Share the project in your E-portfolio for reflective studies (attach the E-portfolio link for submission).

Progress:

In Week 1, we were introduced to the FLIP Presentation, which serves as our Final Project for the Information Design class. This group project consists of 6-10 members. After forming our group, we discussed potential topics and unanimously decided on "What is the Science Behind Luck" as our focus.

After receiving feedback from Mr. Fauzi, he agreed that our topic was interesting and worth exploring. We expanded on our ideas and began preparing the presentation slides for Week 6. To manage the workload effectively, each group member took responsibility for different sections of the presentation.

Team Members:

• Low J-Yin
• Wong Kai Xin
• Tan Zhao Yi
• Low Li Vern
• Kong Cai Yi
• Kelly Lau
• Lim Jun Teng
• Vincent

we've updated the progress section to reflect Mr. Fauzi's feedback and your team's next steps.

Script and Storyboard:

Me, Kai Xin, and Zhao Yi were responsible for writing the video narration script. To make the storytelling more engaging and relatable, we created a main character named Twinkle, who guides the audience through the topic.

Art Direction
We discussed that for the illustration style, we wanted it to look cute and playful. After researching references online, we found that the game "Dumb Ways to Die" had a style that suited our theme well.

Color Scheme:

• Soft Pink: Represents playfulness and gentleness
• Cream: Symbolizes warmth, simplicity, elegance, and minimalism
• Muted Purple: Reflects creativity and mystery
• Warm Yellow: Conveys optimism, happiness, energy, and warmth
• Light Blue: Signifies freshness, trust, and clarity

Reflection

Throughout the Information Design course, I gained valuable insights into the process of transforming complex information into clear, visually appealing narratives. This project allowed me to apply theoretical concepts like LATCH, animation principles, and visualization techniques in a practical setting. Working with my team strengthened my collaboration and communication skills as we divided tasks and ensured consistency across the presentation.

One of the most rewarding aspects was crafting the character "Twinkle" to enhance audience engagement. This storytelling approach made the topic more relatable and easier to understand. Additionally, the process of creating the script and storyboard deepened my understanding of how to organize information logically while maintaining a compelling narrative flow.

Overall, this project not only improved my technical skills in animation and design but also enhanced my ability to convey information effectively. It was a challenging yet fulfilling experience that highlighted the importance of teamwork, planning, and attention to detail in producing an impactful infographic animation.
