BLACKOUT 2003 is a large scale infographic project that curates the world's second most widespread power outage in history on a 32’x20’ poster. My biggest contribution to this infographic poster is content writing and figured out how to simplified my words to better summaries this event.
Progress
- We started off reading “Final Report from U.S.-Canada Power System Outage Task Force” to gain a big picture of this event and sort important information and drafted the initial layout on a whiteboard. Afterward, we worked on content writing and refined the content with a professional writer, map illustration, icon design, and visual narrative separately.
Project Goal
- Since there are a lot of complex information about this event, we want to create a strong series of infographics, that can educate audiences the general power knowledge; Disclose the causes and impact by walking them through engaging and thoughtfully designed comprehensible infographics.
