Popcorn & Politics

Popcorn & Politics Viz

As part of a collaborative class between Parsons and The New York Times, I worked on "Popcorn & Politics"—a data visualization depicting relationships between the film industry and 2008 presidential candidates.

Using the NYT Campaign Finance API, IMDB, and FEC data, we visualized how much money producers from specific movies donated to political candidates. The project was presented at The New York Times and featured on their open blogs.
