I am going to show you my first try with infographics!
Infographics are information or data that is represented visually. It gives a quick information in graphic form that helps improve every individual’s cognition by utilizing graphics to enhance its ability to see patterns, pointing arrows,trends, etc.
First time I discovered Infographics, I realized that I was a “visual” kind of person. I was amazed by the power it gives. Just try to imagine that it can slice and diced enormous information to an easy to understand one legal size page.
When I am tasked to create a just-for-fun Outsourcing Infographic to see what my capabilities are, I had a bit of hesitation since I am not your go-to-guy in times such as this. On the other hand, it is comforting because I find graphics visually entertaining.
And since I uphold the Virtual Assistant title, I must do this and learn from there.
As you can see from my infographic here, I need to learn more on how to keep the quality intact while maximizing/zooming in the picture. On the other hand, I am quite impressed with myself that I made it even without proper training and just utilizing the creativity inside me. 🙂
I am open for suggestions on what kind of tools can a newbie-graphic-designer like me can utilize with Infographics.
For the meantime, I am planning on integrating the tools Photoscape and Powerpoint. I’ve been experimenting on these tools recently to create an image with good quality and I find it very satisfactory.
Do watch out for my next Infographic invention!
Comments for My First Infographic
Jun 25, 2014 | Great first try! I think Jomvie did a great job for his first Infographic! It was not easy for you because you had to improvise quite a bit. But this showed me that you are a creative and inventive person – both are qualities very valuable in a virtual assistant. Note that even if this first graphic is not “perfect”, it is much better to actually DO the first try and improve on it. It’s easy to learn and read yourself to inactivity. It’s harder – but better – to do and to improve yourself each time! |
