Project Description

Project Description

Seize Your Power Days is campaign and website aimed at empowering women through basic knowledge about their bodies. And believe it or not, it all started with strippers. Seize Your Power Days explores research about beneficial behavioral and physical changes that occur in the days leading up to ovulation. By highlighting these unknown or under appreciated powers of the cycle, Seize Your Power Days shifts our focus to the new time of the month. Special attention has been paid to how a user inputs information into SeizeYourPowerDays.com as well as what the site outputs to you. To alleviate the need to log into the site, you may send SeizeYourPowerDays.com messages via email or SMS.

A woman in a black bra and shorts performs a pole dance with her arms extended upward and legs spread apart. She is positioned on a pole against a blue LED screen backdrop. Bright blue stage lighting illuminates the scene. Text overlaid on the image reads “IT ALL START WITH STRIPPERS”.

The image displays a line graph on a peach-colored background with radiating lines. The y-axis is labeled “NATURALLY CYCLING” and shows dollar amounts in stacks of $1 bills. The x-axis is labeled “PERIOD” and “FERTILITY WINDOW,” with arrows indicating the start and end points of each period. A dark blue line labeled “FERTILITY WINDOW” rises to a peak around $354, then falls. A red box labeled “MENSTRUATION” shows $179, marking the period when natural cycles are highest. A dashed gray line labeled “PILL USERS” follows the fertility window, showing a lower fertility window with peaks and troughs.

A collage of computer screens displays various web pages and documents. The central focus is a white page titled “Ovulatory cycle effects on tip earnings by lap dancers: Geoffrey Miller*, Joshua M. Tybar, Brent D. Jordan,” with citations including “Kankani et al., 1996; Singh & Bromstad, 2001; Kankani et al., 2004; Smith et al., 2004; Kankani et al., 2006; Smith et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al., 2006; Kankani et al.,

The image features a vibrant design with a pink background that radiates outward from a central point. Multiple yellow stars are arranged around the central text, which reads "ITS LIKE WE HAVE SUPER POWERS" in bold, pink letters outlined in white. A white banner above the text reads "ITS LIKE WE HAVE". The stars and text elements are set against a gradient background that transitions from a lighter pink at the top to a slightly darker pink at the bottom. The design is dynamic and eye-catching, using a combination of bold colors and star shapes to create a sense of energy and movement.

The image shows a calendar for Monday through Sunday. The date 15 is circled in red. The calendar grid is white with black text for the days of the week and numbered dates.

The image shows a flowchart on a light orange background with radiating lines. On the left side, a red rectangle contains the white text "PERIOD STARTS". On the right side, a dark blue square contains the white word "TOOL". A yellow arrow points from the red rectangle to the blue square, and another yellow arrow points from the blue square to a pink speech bubble on the right. The pink speech bubble contains the white text "Seize Your Power Days".

The image shows a pink-to-purple gradient background with radiating lines. On the left is a dark blue square labeled “TOOL,” with a yellow arrow pointing right. To the right is a pink heart-shaped icon containing the white text "Seize Your Power Days," also with a yellow arrow pointing right. To the right is a purple circle labeled “GOAL,” also with a yellow arrow pointing right.

A screenshot of a calendar application displays a pink header with the title "Seize Your Power Days" and a navigation bar including "RESOURCES," "CALENDARS," "REMINDERS," "NOTES," and "LOGS." Below, a calendar grid shows dates from July 2011, with days of the week abbreviated (e.g., S for Sunday, M for Monday, T for Tuesday, F for Friday). A smaller calendar for August 2011 is also visible. The application interface includes buttons for "Notes Edit" and "View Your Power Days." The background has a pink radial gradient.

A calendar for June 2012 is displayed on a computer screen. The calendar shows all days of the month, with days of the week listed at the top and dates listed below. Color-coded boxes indicate events or appointments, such as “+ Baby’s Birthday,” “+ Performance Review,” and “+ get kitty food.” The calendar interface includes a toolbar with calendar controls and a sidebar with additional calendar options. The background is light orange with radiating lines.

A calendar page displays a gray box titled “Performance Review,” indicating a scheduled review period. The box specifies the review is from 06/12/2012 at 02:00 PM to 06/12/2012 at 03:00 PM. The calendar shows “Tiffany in Town” scheduled for May 28th, with “PAY DAY!!” noted next to it. The start date is marked as 27, and the day is highlighted in purple.

A calendar page shows several colored horizontal bars representing different tasks. The top left bar is purple and says “get kitty food”. The next bar is light purple and says “Ovulation Dinner Date”. The next bar is light green and says “Tiffany in Town PAY DAY!!”. The next bar is gray and says “Start”. The next bar is light green and says “Beach”. The calendar page is blank except for the colored bars.

Three iPhones are displayed side by side against a peach-colored gradient background. Each screen shows the same interface: a black home screen with a pink and orange gradient background, a central text box displaying SYPD’s message about cradleboxing, and a button labeled “slide to unlock.” The time shown on each phone is 11:45, 8:00, and 10:15.

A woman with long brown hair stands in front of two wooden benches. She wears a black sleeveless top, black pants, and black shoes. Her left hand rests on her hip, and her right hand is in her pocket. The bench to her left is longer and has a backrest. The bench to her right is shorter and has no backrest. The background includes a brick wall and trees. Lighting is bright and natural.
