infographics 2

Updated version. Sorry to be posting this later than intended. Changed the colored line thickness, added a title and description (which tells a little about what the lines mean, instead of adding a key) and changed the color a bit.

infographics

Here's one of the posters so far. I went with the line technique because even though I have number/percentage data from my surveys, I kind of wanted to show the trend itself; and in a way that did not literally rely on the numbers. I'm not sure how well it is working, especially since I've been staring at it way too long while working on it, but hopefully it came out alright.

Edit: Okay, not sure how to reply to comments on blogger (seems like it only lets you make a new comment?) But anyway--the lines. I meant for each one to represent a single person from the survey. The warm colors are for girls and the cool colors represents guys. The lines hit different points that correspond to the different question, and the individual choices for each question are connectioned by the few large horizontal black lines in the bg, between the dots. Still working on making the whole thing a little more... comprehensible, if that's the right word?

Survey pt 2

I tried to edit my survey a bit and put it on SurveyMonkey so it is more accessible. Please take a minute to do the survey. I'm still conflicted about the questions, but if I have some data to start with then hopefully I can edit/make a new survey with questions that work for infographics.

Also, I didn't realize surveymonkey only lets you use 10 questions, so I took one of the originals out and edited some others. Again, just a test run.

My survey is here, thanks for your time.

Survey

Not sure about how it came out (both in design and content) but here's my first attempt.
