What the judges said: “This tells a very important story, and it does so with inventiveness. We often don’t allow ourselves to take chances with important stories. Putting the data into a new narrative structure, and incorporating the narrative into the graphic itself instead of running it adjacent, it makes people care. This is how you create emotion through data visualization. This presentation was used as a precursor to the story going live; it’s a great example of how to deploy resources as a warm-up act.”
