Mulheres na ciência e tecnologia: uma animação em motion graphics

Abstract

Given the low historical representation of women in science and technology, this paper aimed to develop an animation in motion graphics that presented women of relevance in the world scientific and technological development, along their greatest achievements, in order to encourage girls and women to pursue careers in the area. Sixteen scientists from different fields were selected, and, from research on them, a script was conceived, which later originated the animation. Following the design thinking methodology, after color and form studies, graphic representations of each researched scientist were created in the flat style, which were digitally animated according to the basic principles of animation. The video produced was then made available on the internet and evaluated by the public, being deemed successful in its proposal.
