SUMMARY:4 Lessons YouTubers Taught a Data Scientist About Data Visualization
DESCRIPTION:Join Ryan Shields to discover why millions tune in for maps and graphs—and learn how to create visual stories that inspire action. \n\n\n\n\nRyan produces maps and graphs at Newpress\, the studio behind Tunnel Vision\, The Bigger Picture\, Search Party\, & the Emmy-winning Johnny Harris YouTube channel (9.79 million subscribers combined). \nDrawing on a decade of experience working with maps\, data science\, and social media\, Ryan Shields will walk you through 4 lessons he’s learned from top YouTubers that you can immediately apply to create data visualizations that will inspire action and connect with the audiences that most need to see your work. \nBefore producing videos with maps and graphs on YouTube\, Ryan created maps\, graphs\, and data infrastructure for tourism\, conservation\, and disaster response. Collaborators and partners include the UN Environmental Programme\, The Nature Conservancy\, the Red Cross\, African Parks\, FEMA\, various government ministries across the Caribbean\, and state and local governments across the US. Ryan earned a BS in Geography and an MS in Wildlife and Wildlands Conservation from Brigham Young University. \nThis is a free virtual event presented by the Data Visualization Society and is open to the public to join. \nHere’s the plan: \n\nWe’ll start with Ryan’s presentation. (40min)\nThen open the floor to questions and discussion with Ryan. (20min)\n\nIf you’d like to learn more about Ryan and follow his work\, visit spatialstoriesmedia.com \n\n  \nDVS Plus Member Backstage AMA \nDVS Plus members are invited to join Ryan for a 30-minute informal AMA after the event! This exclusive Zoom session is a chance to ask Ryan questions directly\, continue the conversation\, and connect with him in a more casual\, behind-the-scenes setting.
