Capstone Project – Computer Science History
Joshua Sedig
For my capstone project, I will be doing an infographic with a remixed video. The subject matter would be related to the evolution of computer science over the years.
I plan on using Illustrator for most of my infographic. The layout would be a vertical timeline for the history of computer science. The major events within computer science will be listed in order of date. I will be using colors that are easy to read with and don’t interfere with the information. the pictures will be simple and to the point.
The remixed video will be focused on the importance of computer science and will show many applications of it. I will show a lot of the important points in history where computer science had a large impact and how it has helped us progress. I will start simple at the start of the video and have it end on a large scale application. some of the topics I plan on covering are space exploration, Internet, and jobs.
