Sweet infograpgic example! I love the incorporation of photos and graphics.

Now that my personal logo is complete, I get to design an infographic of my choosing. The hard part has been choosing a topic. I love listening to podcasts from Stuff Mom Never Told you.  I like listening to this podcast because they talk all about girl stuff, relationships, and how random things work! I find it very enlightening and entertaining.

I once heard a podcast on perfume and it was incredibly interesting! I would like to make an infographic on how perfume works and / or the effects it has.  This is something I am interested in and dedicated to creating something fantastic for!

This infographic will show research and be a How It Works graphic to show science and effects of perfume.

Hear are a few hooks I could use:

  • Catching the Scent
  • How Perfume Works
  • Perfume v. Attractiveness

I will need to do a little more research on this subject, but so far I know that perfume has several stages it goes through once it is once it is on you.  I also remember from the podcast that perfume is masking our natural scents and can confuse people into being attracted to others that they are not genetically compatible with.  It is possible that perfume is the cause of the wrong people getting together!

I have created an infographic Pinterest board to gather ideas of designs I really like.

Basic Timeline:

  • Oct. 5 – 10: Collect all research & Data. Plan out organization of graphic, and begin sketching.
  • Oct. 12- 17:  Create sketches, get feedback, pick color scheme, and begin creating vectors.
  • Oct. 19 – 24: Get critique on first draft, refine, get more feedback, and refine again.
  • Oct. 28 – Finalize infographic and get posted to the blog.
