For my capstone class I decided to research, how streaming services impacted the film industry? Movies have always been a place of inspiration for me. I think it is one of the most compelling art forms out there. I have taken to following the film industry. Streaming has seemed to dominate the film industry especially in the wake of the pandemic. I explored this question by researching the profits, history, and professions opinions on streaming. I also surveyed JMU School of Art, Design and Art History students to see what their movie watching habits are like with streaming. I made an information design poster and a screenplay book for my capstone project. The objective of the poster is to show how streaming services have affected the film industry overtime. The objective of this book is to show how professionals and leaders in the film industry view the impact of streaming and history of streaming in a screenplay book.

The design is playful and clean. There is a movie motif all over the projects. Fun and film themed illustrations and icons are used throughout the projects. For example, the Academy Award statues and film strips used to display information for the graphs and survey questions. The screenplay book layout takes inspiration from how real screenplays are formatted with the margins and inclusion of transitions written in text. The collages of iconic film images are energetic and bold. White space is used liberally. Trajan Pro 3 and Century Gothic Pro give the design a classical and sophisticated look. The graphs and surveys are simple and straightforward. ‍
