Gay Point Graphics

For this assignment we were to create an informational graphic, or infographic as we like to call them. The source was from a short story about the most 'gay friendly' schools across the nation. Each of the six schools was given a number, so a bar graph was most definately in order. I first played around with the hortizontal or vertical aspects of the angle. Everyone in my class went for vertical, so I went horizontal. I chose the blue because it is a pretty neutral color and juxtaposes the rainbow of color on the headline. Also blue is my favorite color. I then split up the bars and created an extra box for each number just to make sure the reader can clearly see which school has which score.
