Details

Learn the skills needed to reproduce professional-level animations and interactives in R. We will go over basic animations like scatter plots, line graphs, and maps, as well as more advanced three-dimensional interactives. At the end of this workshop, participants will have a fundamental understanding of how to build their own movies within the R environment.

Knowledge prerequisites: Basic knowledge of R

Hardware/software prerequisites: You will need a laptop with R/RStudio and these packages: ggplot2, dplyr, gganimate, gifski, tidyverse, plotly, stars. For installing R/RStudio, see these directions: https://researchcomputing.princeton.edu/learn/workshops-live-training/requirements-picscie-person-and-virtual-workshops#rstudio

Workshop format: Presentation and hands-on
