The Story

In telling the story of the plastics in our oceans, we hoped to guide readers through a cohesive, exploratory story. A story which would allow them to learn what ultimately happens to the trash they see onshore.

Design

I had to determine what information was most necessary, and while balancing made the most sense for our technical capabilities.

Mockups

Sketching out what our solution might look like was a vital roadmap to our final product.

Coding

Using D3.js I worked to make our vision come to life.

Final Deliverable

A prototype of our site with user interaction.
