Organizing Information for an Infographic

WHO DOESN’T LOVE INFOGRAPHICS?

I’ve also found that organizing information in a way to make an infographic is a good way to actually study a subject.  Most of the style of infographics come from color, symbols, icons, and shapes.  The test of it is made up on bis and pieces of organized information.

INFOGRAPHICS AS A WAY TO LEARN INFO:

After analyzing what makes an infographic, I realized that it all starts with the organized information set up in some kind of hierarchy, sectioning or divisions

Once you know how many containers of information you will need, your design begins there.  The rest of it is color choice, container sizes and shapes, and whatever illustrations, charts or icons you want to use to dress it up.



INFOGRAPHICS AS A WAY TO PASS ON WHAT YOU’VE LEARNED:
