Assignment: Dataviz Portfolio Video
Make a video where you step through your works thus far on bl.ocks.org and describe each one. This should include all work from Weeks 1 - 3. Please try to make the video less than 10 minutes.
- For making videos, I'd recommend the following software:
- Screen capture software such as OBS (if you're on Mac, QuickTime works well for this).
- (optional) This has an option for a webcam face overlay in the corner.
- (Optional) Video editing software such as KDEnlive
- for editing out silences and false starts.
- If you find another tool that works for you, please share it with the class (there's so much out there).
- Screen capture software such as OBS (if you're on Mac, QuickTime works well for this).
- Please include your bl.ocks.org profile page as the first scene of the video.
- Please add an image to your GitHub profile, it makes your bl.ocks.org profile look more professional.
- You can click through each link, and describe each visualization for a minute or so.
- Please discuss anything interesting about the visualization, data, or underlying phenomena.
- Observations, insights into how things are.
- Surprises - "I was surprised to see that..."
- New questions - "Why is it like that?"
- Any random information about your process of creation or finding the data - "I was always really interested in X and I found this data..."
- Please post the video on YouTube.
- You can make it "unlisted" if you really don't want the world to see - but I'd recommend "public" as this can be part of your professional portfolio.
- Submit the YouTube link as the submission for this assignment in Canvas.
- Please post the link to the course Slack channel, and watch everyone else's videos.
