Finn Partners Webinar reflection

Finn Partners Webinar

On Friday, we had a webinar in which three presenters, Ariq Hossain, Brandon Sherpa, and Thiago Alvarez Alarcon, Do not ask me why I know their full names presented their portfolios to various members at Finn Partners, I originally assumed this was to prepare them to present to Freshman/Incoming Sophomores later that day, I'm not sure if it still is. But either way, it was interesting to see these students present to the panel all of the work they have completed since Sophomore year. I really liked the design of Thiago's website, it's very simple with the Blue over White theme, and the intro animation was a nice touch too, the panel thought the same thing. When I make my portfolio, I want to implement something similar into the landing page.

What is the goal of data visualization? The main goal of Data visualization is to present an idea, in a way that is easy to grasp and understand. Data visualization is supposed to be a creative way to present data, such as showing data for poverty as shopping carts Conflict's Root Causes Description This exhibition is supposed to display the man-made objects sent to various points in space such as Earth's orbits, the moon, and even Mars. The purpose of this illustration is to show us how much space exploration we have done ever since the space race between the USSR and the USA back in the 1960s, this information is supposed to be easily digestible, otherwise we would've had a boring dotted graph.
