Graphic Design Brief

Produce a simple, no frills, 1 page, clean technical bar chart from a detailed pencil sketch that is provided with this brief.

All images, data, and text is provided with this brief, in the form of a detailed pencil sketch of the bar chart.

Chart to be produced in landscape format, printed at 8.5" x 11"

The chart illustrates how the country offers for the upcoming Paris climate agreement add-up.

Countries are currently offering carbon emission reductions that will be the basis for a new international agreement on climate change scheduled for finalization in early December in Paris.

This chart compares the results of two different assessments of how the Paris agreement is shaping up: the Boyd et al. assessment, and the Climate Advisors assessment.

1) The chart should be based on the sketch in the uploaded file labeled: TheWholeComplexStory.

2) In addition, our logo should be added to the chart. The file with that logo is labeled: logohires

3) Finally some extra room should be left at the bottom of the chart of the addition of 1-2 lines of text in the way of a footnote. Those two lines of text will be provided separately. Dummy text can be used in first draft.

The images in the file labeled "ParisProgressDraft" and the file labeled "INDCChartV1" are provided for reference ONLY, to help make the concept clear.

The technical chart to be produced should NOT be based on those images. The technical chart should be even simpler, with LESS graphic style.

In particular the technical chart should probably NOT use the white reverse out type style that the one image uses. Reverse out type can be hard to read.

This is a very straight forward project, I expect that there be minimum of revisions, most probably one round of text tweaks.

I will be available to answer any questions.

more detail:

There are two bars in this chart - one bar represents the Boyd et al. assessent, the other bar the results of the Climate Advisors assessment. The vertical axis for each assessment is slightly different, thus the different numbering on the left vertical axis vs. the right vertical axis. [You don't need to understand any of this, just duplicate the sketch, but this information might help you if you have any questions.)

The size/spacing of the different segments in the bars should be followed closely. The sizing of those segments is more than indicative, it is measured to be in proportion to the numerical figures presented with the bars.

Requirements

Must have

• The very bottom of the chart should read:
• This chart illustrates the emerging picture of INDC contributions by comparing and synthesizing findings from two recent assessments of country offers for the Paris agreement: "What will global annual emissions of greenhouse gases be in 2030, and will they be consistent with avoiding global warming of more than 2˚ C by Boyd, Stern, and Ward, published May 2015 by the Grantham Research Institute and "Paris Analysis: Mind the Gap" February 2015 published by Climate Advisors.
