Progress

This is the first infographic I created:

Things I like about this

• The space colour scheme from Adobe Kuler
• The typeface used for the title
• The typeface for the main body
• The stamp I created in the top right corner

Things I don’t like

• The layout is messy
• There is no hierarchy
• The bottom speech bubble

So after creating my first infographic, I decided I would go back to looking at other people’s infographics. I needed to work on the hierarchy of my information as there was no order on my page, so I initially thought of turning my infographic into a giant, colourful grid to try and make it easier to read.

This is my second attempt:

Things I like

• The new colour scheme – there is more variety than with the first one

Things I don’t like

• The squares system does not work
• Still no hierarchy

So after creating this, I noticed something else about other infographics: they are often long so the viewer has to scroll down, which creates hierarchy and an order of reading on the page. So I decided to create a longer infographic where my reader will have to scroll down or read down the page too. To separate the information, I then decided to put my information in boxes that span across the page.

My third attempt:

It is still working progress, hence the screenshot with my colour scheme on Illustrator. However, I much happier with this final infographic idea. It still fits an A2 page, but is easier to read, more pleasing to the eye and has an order to it.
