Final Assignment: Milestone 2

Brief
Your creative design approaches. How are you going convince and sell the idea? Compare apples with apples and oranges with oranges. Have a benchmark/yardstick. Use a consistent metrics and type of data between the two topics (i.e. percentages with percentages, numbers with numbers and facts with facts).

Both the infographic poster and video will be a side-by-side comparison of the classic monsters, Dracula and Frankenstein, in modern day scenarios. Given that my infographic is more of a fun comparison between two fictional characters, there wouldn't be too many statistics to show. More emphasis can be given to the visuals, with facts/trivia being relayed to viewers through the voiceover, titles, speech bubbles, and callouts, among others.

The monster films produced by Universal Studios during the decades of the 1920s through the 1950s can influence the design and tone of the infographic. I plan to make illustrations for the characters and scenes, but I'm also considering the lecturer's suggestion of using actual footage from the films for the infographic video.
