For today’s Daily Create, the challenge was to make a movie quote infographic. My initial thought was “We’re gonna need a bigger boat,” but the output would end up being as inelegant as some of the examples from Flowing Data.

One of the presents I got for Christmas was a film noir collection, so “Straight down the line” from Double Indemnity came to mind. We used it as a tag line for Noir106 a few years ago. The quote appears in the script four times, four+ if you count “right down the line” from the protagonists’ initial conversation. The visualization is obvious and simple. I especially like the minimalist aesthetic. I did it in PowerPoint with a couple shapes and saved it as an image. I like it when a plan comes together that easily.
