Standalone Infographic
Scope
Create an infographic relating to the Pulitzer Prize. The infographic must have at least two data sets and adhere to standardized typefaces and colors.
Approach
Considering the gender gap within the Pulitzer Prize winners, I wanted to explore its more radical implication: the gender inequality within the Pulitzer Prize Board, those who wield the power of choosing the winners. Using the Pulitzer website, I gathered data on the Pulitzer Prize Board and calculated how its gender composition may correlate to the inequality in Pulitzer Prize winners.
Made using Adobe Illustrator.

Infographic Series
Scope
Propose a series of 5 infographics to be published as an Instagram carousel, whose topic pertains to the Oscars, Grammys, Olympics, World Cup, or Golden Globe Awards. The series must have a cohesive style and use some form of handmade, tactile art.
Approach
To relate to the topic of the Oscar Award for cinematography, I recreated my data sets by projecting light onto a wall: I first graphed the data in Illustrator, then printed it, cut it out, projected a light through it, photographed the projections, and implemented a photo treatment that alludes to the origins of early 20s filmmaking.
A focused light source projected on the right wall, where I took the photos.
Unedited photo.
Made using Adobe Illustrator and analog methods.
