Rationale Statement:

    Just like my motivation for my Disney informational digital story, I was inspired to create this digital story about Universal Studios theme parks because of the close proximity to their Orlando theme parks that I experienced growing up. As a child and teenager, I often went to Universal studios in Orlando because it was only a 40 minute drive from my house. If I am being completely honest, I favor Universal Studios theme parks over Disney theme parks now. I had no idea that Universal Studios had so many locations around the world, so I wanted to help other people learn about them as well. 

    The purpose of this story was to educate people about the various Universal Studios locations around the world. My target audience is Universal lovers or people simply interested in Universal. Unlike Disney, Universal only has 5 locations compared to the 12 Disney locations, so this informative digital story was a lot shorter.
