A2 Draft

Based on what I did for A1, I continued the same style and designed A2.


However, this time round, i added a much stronger singaporean feel to the poster. I guess that makes my infographic unique. the pastel color seem to blend in well with each other. black background brings out the colour contrast well. The graph is not readable but if its printed at A3 size, it is possible to read it. 

A1 Is finally completed!

Okay, I was exploring to find my style of infographics during the past few weeks. So i did quite some experiment.


In the end, I did 2 graphics for the same data. I kind of liked the second one more. My A2 is based on the same layout or so. clean and clear.

A1 Draft

Took me some time to do this data compilation, kinda wasted a lot of time on what should be what. No idea what was required of the project as well, but this was what was made. Simple colour combination letting users interpret the data on their own, assisting and emphasizing using bold fonts. Not sure if I should explain more or simply leave it be. I don't think I should treat the reader as a dumby. 





CHOO EE HWEE'S Comment: 

Your infographic is pretty attractive but I feel that maybe a few changes would make the data clearer. I have noticed that you bolded certain percentages in the first half on the infographic, is there any reason for it? And I think the bolded percentages would be more obvious if they were of a larger font size?
 
As for the graph in the second half, I think a smaller scale with increments of 2 would make the data clearer. As of now I can’t really see the lines from 0-5.



Yup, have to agree with her, would probably upsize the font if it doesn't affect the aesthetics. It is to emphasize which country contributed most to which category. As for the graph, yup definitely. I will try to increase it as much as possible. However the main purpose isn't for them to read the data but just seeing how the contributions from USA increased so much over time. Maybe I should write some stuffs nearby to make it obvious. I think I should explain some parts of the graph as well.
