Spaghetti Dinner Graphic

FINAL GRAPHIC

RATIONALE:

During this week I felt myself doing very well conveying a message without words as our group won the "Ocaams Razor" prize for the Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich. However, when the assignment was given to describe a full spaghetti dinner without words I did not know what to do. There are so many different steps into making a spaghetti dinner that I immediately became overwhelmed. I first sat and started to draw of all the component needed to make a spaghetti dinner. There is garlic bread, meatballs, and spaghetti just for the bare essentials. In the lawn care assignment I felt as though my "chart like" format was very successful so I decided to do a waterfall effect with columns eventually leading to the end product. I put the process of making spaghetti in the left column, making garlic bread in the middle, and making meatballs in the right column. To divide the processes I decided to make the lines look like spaghetti to go along with the spaghetti dinner feel. I tried to use multiple colors within the symbols to relate to the audience in what products they may recognize. I tried to use similarity in symbols such as the timer to convey how long the audience is supposed to cook the food. Overall, I feel ad though the final graphic turned out to be successful.
