Narrative

How can different perspectives of a story be combined into one cohesive narrative?

Choosing a perspective...

The story of New Horizon involves two distinct perspectives: time and distance. To create a comprehensive narrative that captures the full journey, I combined these elements in a narrative sketch.

Takeaways

Making Information Digestible

"Beyond the Horizon" explores the New Horizon spacecraft's journey to Pluto and beyond. This project tested my Figma expertise, featuring over 50 interaction nodes. The interactive design ensures clarity, guiding users seamlessly through the webpage for an engaging experience.
Next Steps I would take:
  • Responsive Design: If I could continue this project, I'd rather expand the project to be responsive on different devices while also maintaining the level of interactivity.
  • Applying this format to other science topics: Science is fun to learn but can be a struggle to comprehend. How can this type of project be expanded to other topics? How can I use this to help bridge the between the desire to learn and the complexity of science?
