This Story Board provides my ideas and plans for my final project. I’m going to be creating a five to ten minute basketball video of showcasing highlights of me and my teammates while creating a podcast discussing what’s going on in the video and providing facts on how basketball media content has a huge impact on the media industry and on people’s lives for those to create opportunities to become successful.
This StoryBoard is representing my final project topic, outline, themes and more. I would recommend zooming in closer to look at it. At the top I included my statement of design and more information regarding my project as to what it will explore. I am going to use this project as working towards my final, and I hope people enjoy the insights that I offer to it on this storyboard.

My project explores the digital divide between schools in Ghana and the United States, focusing on how access to technology impacts education. I created my storyboard using Microsoft Word, organizing everything in a table format, which helps me stay on track. The outcome is a clear, accessible layout that makes it easy for others to follow without adding complexity.
The tool I used during my planning process is the Microsoft application Visio, which is a storyboarding application that gives users the ability to create flow-chart diagrams for outlining. In the platform I utilized different figures like rhombuses, squares, rectangles, lines, and arrows to draw a map of my podcast episode. My final project will have themes and ideas pertaining to: filter beautification, name identification, and the “#BlackGirlMagic”. Specifically, I will focus on how social media determines beauty and the visibility of ethnic beauty in online spaces. The audience for these themes will be Black women and people of color (POC). From there, I created three different sections that have sample podcast text of what I plan to say. Each section is labeled as a topic and the source that will be referenced. For example, for the “#BlackGirlMagic” section, I will be referencing the journal “#BlackGirlMagic: Impact of the social media movement on Black women’s self-esteem by Jadesola T Olayinka et.al. Utilizing Visio to descriptively create an outline of my podcast has worked sufficiently, because I have narrowed my talking points and found sources to support my discussion.

In my storyboard Illustrated layout of my final project to raise awareness towards the global and local disparities of digital access, as well as explore how this gap has different impacts on different communities. My goal for this project was to create an engaging layout with Visio that demonstrates the structure of my final project and to develop a plan to more effectively complete the final project. Through producing both my storyboard and map I will be able to have an impact on communities who experience a lack of digital access, and potentially promote their issue to serve on a large scale. My final outcome for my storyboard is a clear and logistical plan for me to effectively explore the global disparities in internet access in the final project.
