Title: A Day of Inspiration
Project Statement: For my project I decided to post inspiration and happy quotes on Yik Yak for 24 hours to see what kind of response it would receive. The purpose of this project was to use Yik Yik, which is a highly negative application, for good use and hopefully I impacted someone along the way. The content was the individual posts made, and the context was the purpose of them.
Research Process: The research process for this project was basically thinking about what inspires me on stressful days. I also looked up inspirational quotes and posted many of those over the 24 hour period. In order to measure the effectiveness of the posts, I payed clear attention to the likes on other posts throughout the day for a comparison.
Production Process: My planning process changed through out the course of the assignment, but when I settles, I produced my project by posting a series of inspirational quotes on Yik Yak. The obstacles I faced were people not having the appreciation for the posts that I wanted. If i could do it differently I would maybe post inspiration on all my personal social medias for 24 hours to see how my friends and followers react opposed to anonymous individuals on Yik Yak.
