Lets go to the Movies
I’m feeling far to nice these days and I’m giving the team 2 days to complete these challenge (however that does increase my overall expectations).
The past couple of Dashboard weeks, we’ve used this theme and had some really great outputs from the cohorts. The task today is to submit a viz for the Data + Movies challenge by Tableau.
Follow the Challenge Starter Kit to obtain a data source and the corresponding data dictionary. Feel free to get further inspiration online and enhance your dataset as you see fit.
Each member of the cohort must choose a different story. Ideas of different areas to focus on could be:
- Focusing on a specific actor’s career
- Focusing on a director’s career
- Focusing on a studio
- Focusing on a particular genre of film
- Comparing actors/directors/studios/genres
- Etc
You must communicate with one another to ensure there is no overlap and create a post on convo before 10am Thursday morning to make sure that we (the coaches) are happy with the topic and make sure they are not too broad. Speak to us on convo (Robbin, Ruth, Carl or Jenny) or message me during the first break at 9:45-10:00 am.
Make sure you read the instructions and T&C's carefully and by Weds 3:30pm you are presenting your:
- Plan
- Scope
- Sketch
- Viz
- Blog
As per usual you have about 5-10 minutes to present.
Don't think that having two days allows you to get away with not planning your work. Making a proper plan and scoping your project to something achievable will be key!
