Econ 1 with John Taylor
The following was created for Stanford’s Hoover Institution in partnership with Policy Ed. The goal was to build a series pulled from a variety of Professor’s video lectures. In this specific case, we worked with John Taylor who had recorded a three part lecture in front of a white wall using an ol’ fashioned transparency projector showcasing his visual aids. The team at Stanford requested a system that could compliment the somewhat poor quality of the footage, while also replacing the transparency projected visuals with more lively graphics.
They also asked that the lectures be edited down to more digestible durations. I began with developing a visual system loosely inspired by Swiss design, with an aesthetic nod to the time-tested textbook. The original footage was then cut down, removing long pauses, repetitive sentences, and the copious use of filler words to create a faster-paced and more digestible lecture.
We maintained the use of of see-say type, a quality common in lectures, to ensure that notes could easily be taken by viewers. Additional graphics were created to aid in illustrating the lecture content. For this series, I worked as Creative Director at Neighbor Animation where I was responsible for many aspects of the project including, pitch, design, animation, editorial, audio mix and song selection. Additional animation was provided by Julia Iverson.
