MAP MAKER, MAP MAKER, MAKE ME A MAP!

MONARCH MIGRATION MAP

As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts, one of our classes is Information Graphics in which we learn techniques in Adobe's Creative Suite, i.e. Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, etc.  So far we have been learning how to use Illustrator and our first assignment was to make a map.  I chose to map Monarch butterfly migration.  Although the work is very time consuming, I actually really loved map making.  There is something so satisfying about organizing information.  It was also really fun researching Monarch butterflies.  Oh the joys of learning things you never knew...
