Songs/Music Background

This is the list of the songs (instrumental) that i think suitable for my video;

Sketches
Here's my rough idea for the storyboard or the story of my video: 




first segment



second segment



third segment


Equipments
I'm using these kind of stuff  for do my data part. The reason is to attract people and to find another or different way to approach people to see my data;























"How Many People I Met"

As a university student, i spent a lot of my time at the university; went to the class every single weekdays, study group, meeting, doing assignments at here, eating and other things. Basically, on weekdays during the day, my time is pack since my schedule always full. Sometimes, myself didn't take a breakfast and skip lunch just because of my weakness to handle or manage for my own time very well. So then, i just take a dinner with my housemates. Just imagine sometimes, i eat a lot for once in that day and the amount of my meal is too much. For me, it's not healthy but because of my stubborn, i just ignore about it. And sometimes i just realised that, actually i'm not meet people so much on weekdays except go to lunch (sometimes) with my classmates or other university mates. 

So i take the advantage of doing this assignment which is i required to gather, analyze, create and provide my own statistical data chart for 7 days about anything i do every single day... and i decided to do about "how many people i met per day during lunch time (12pm-2pm)". At least, i got two informations while doing one thing for my assignment which is i gain the knowledge and experience to figure out how to solve the problem in a way of using animated information graphics plus i can know approximately or estimates how many people i met in every single day during lunch hour. The reason why i choose lunch time is because on this pick hour, i can meet my friends, i can meet anybody i want because at this time everybody need a rest time, need a chill time with their friends at outside from 'boring places' like office, class etc while to fulfill their tummy instead of other pick hours. I don't think you will see the same amount of people during the day (lunch time) and during the night (dinner time).

So here's my data about "how many people i met per day (during lunch time)" :

Research About Stop Motion

For this final project, basically i want to use final output using stop motion method. so i do my own research for stop motion stuff and here's some good examples and inspiration of ideas (links) that can guide me on what i'm gonna do for my animated information graphics;

Infographics, Stop Motion & Motion Graphics (playlist)

Research About Animated Information Graphics

Infographics are visual illustrations communicating information by means of signs, symbols, icons, maps and diagrams. When these graphics are animated they can be used to represent complex situations and tell stories, or they can address social comment, satire and subversion. At their best, infographics in motion can be informative, involving, funny and at times surprisingly touching. This post brings examples of these stunning animations.



1. Grand Tour of The Known Universe
This is a truly awesome infographic animation revealing the scale of the known universe in relation to our home planet. Astrophysicists at the American Museum of Natural History have mapped and constantly update and maintain the Digital Universe Atlas, a four-dimensional map of the cosmos, created using the latest scientific data. Based on this map, the movie takes the viewer on a mesmerising voyage from the Himalayas to the furthest reaches of known space and time, with every galaxy, star, planet, moon and satellite accurately scaled and positioned according to current knowledge.

*since i can't upload the references video, here's the link about the examples of stunning animations*
