Political Art

You will make a gif animation for this project. It can be an image or text, but it has to move in at least five different ways, color, size, etc.

Goal:
To take information about public policy and use it as an informative spring board to create your gif with a political message for the general population.

Driving Question:
How can art reflect and inform the public about policy-making agendas?

Consider this:
What policy do you care about?
How do you define general population?
What is public?
Remember that you have to have an emotional attachment to your project.

Individual Assignments
Choose 4 public policies and brainstorm 6 gifs that could represent the policy.
For each gif, list 4-5 colors or other elements that could adorn the gif.
Develop a final sketch for your chosen gif.
