Star Wars Data Visualization

Skills and Concepts:

Adobe Illustrator, Visual Design, Creating a Style, Researching and Compiling Data, Creating Graphs/Charts

Star Wars is one of my oldest and most profound loves. It was the source of many sleepovers, movie marathons, and sidewalk camping experiences. When the chance came to create a beautiful, compelling, and thematic data visualization, there was only one choice.

​

The task was to create a data visualization that analyzed several subjects across multiple variables in a single graphic. Using Adobe Illustrator almost exclusively, I created this graphic. One of the joys of Star Wars is the wealth of iconic symbols, styles, and tropes. The poster is dynamic and loyal to the Star Wars brand. The yellow color used in the chart and text is the same as from the opening scroll that precedes each movie. The Little Yoda artwork is used to convey meaning without words and Lightsabers are used for the bars of the graph.

​

This graphic is functional and layered with detail while being just downright fun. It took all my developing skills in visual design and Adobe Illustrator to execute this project and I’m very pleased with it. This project was a love letter from me to a franchise that has meant so much to me throughout my life.
