Choosing my topic

For my final project I have had trouble pinning down a specific idea. For the past couple of semesters I was sure that I would end up doing something having to do with medicine.

For one of my classes I did an infographic on Short Gut Syndrome, which is a chronic disease, and I could go on about that but I feel as though that had been in my head for so long that it would be better to spend a year thinking about something a little different.

And in doing all the activities and topics as well as talking with my classmates I found that there was something that I was interested in going at and I did talk about int my last post but I did want to openly talk about my direction a little more.

I know that I want to do a motion graphic but I am unsure specifics. It was brought to my attention that I might be able to actually shoot a video and I do find that interesting but I do want to do something a bit simpler.

I am still thinking about the logistics exactly but the feed back I got and I choose to go with the history of black hair and informing young black adults who may not be aware of the hair styles and types out there as well as the history of the hair styles.

So going back to my first sort of topic but a bit more in depth.
