Abstract
Data Videos have emerged as a popular narrative visualization storytelling form for public data communication. The climax of a data video critically presents the most crucial information to the audience. Nonetheless, building an impactful climax requires lots of guidance. The first step is understanding and visualizing the climax as a narrative stage. We draw inspiration from the mathematical theory of the Golden Ratio. Through an iterative coding process, we first analyzed the Rising-Climax of 63 data videos based on the Freytag pyramid structure. Then, we observed the statistics result between the Rising-Climax and the Golden Ratio. The result showed the potential coherence between the Golden Ratio point for data videos and the Rising-Climax point of data videos. We further conducted a case analysis to demonstrate how applying the Golden Ratio to the Rising-Climax sequence in data videos can enh enhance its construction.
