besexE — Reimagining the Sex Ed Experience
01What I Did & Why?
Through research I found that the current sex education experience lacks ease, comfortability, and unbiased constraints to knowledge. I found the best solution to this problem was to use the existing familiarity and outreach accessibility that Tiktok and other social media platforms have, to design a new normalized experience around sex education that is inclusive, reliable, and fun!

03Key Takeaways
Takeaways I've concluded would be to really let the findings of the research drive the direction of the project. My initial angle for this project changed after seeing the results of my first round of survey's. Another takeaway would just be understanding how important it is to have a rough timeline of my project beginning to end, to know where I should be by the end of each week. This really helps me to stay ahead and continue to work at a steady pace. About 3/4 of the way through the semester my hard-drive stopped reading my files, and had to remake a lot of things. Something I have learned from that experience is to upload everything to OneDrive or a similar online storage space as I go. Throughout this project I got to further my expertise in working with Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, After Effects, and InDesign.
