This week I was tasked with two infographic design projects. I was given two statistics by a supervisor of mine and told to research various non-governmental organizations’ social media profiles and the way they layout infographic design. This gave me a better idea of how to successfully create a visual to convey a statistic in an impactful way.
I was told to develop two drafts for each of the two provided statistics, differing stylistically. My supervisors will choose witch of the drafts to move forward with.
I was given access to the company’s Google Drive folders and given permission to use any photos. I was also told to be consistent with the branding and font usage on the company’s Instagram account.
After sending my drafts in, my supervisor’s response made me aware of the importance of an understanding of industry terminology and the ability to use it. Conveying methods and explanations to people outside the design industry, like a potential client, is a vital skill as well.
My second drafts were approved and utilized on the company’s social media profile.
