I made this poster as a part of an assignment that was due this morning. The assignment was about scale, and I chose to illustrate the contrast between national student debt statistics, and the personal consequences of being a poor student. This is the former—the national statistics—while I presented the latter in form of a bound book containing staple “student foods” (i.e. top ramen) and their price. The big numbers on the poster in comparison to the very small sums in the book creates a nice contrast. I didn’t spend as much time on the poster as I would have liked. My favorite part of it is the background graphic, which I rendered in Maya using various algorithms. Incidentally, this was my instructor’s least favorite element.
