ndltd-NEU--neu-cj82qj4392021-05-27T05:11:56ZMovements and transformations: how motion conveys messages, improves storytelling, and captivates viewers.Motion in data visualizations has been studied from different perspectives such as perceptual theories, visual form studies, and user experience explorations. This thesis analyzes this topic with another approach: how motion can help with the communication goals of a visualization. After studying several examples, I have developed a conceptual framework that lets me categorize four different functions: representing data (named data as motion), interpolating and showing how data values are related to the same visual form (motion as an interpolation of data values), guiding the viewer (motion as a storytelling device), and drawing attention to the piece (motion as a captivator). These four categories can sometimes appear together at the same time, depending on the needs of the data and/or of the visualization.http://hdl.handle.net/2047/D20256748
