Today will be a lab day for Infographics – we will talk more about how to visualize your data as well as I will demonstrate the graphs function in Illustrator.
Key tips:
- Object: Graph: Type
- Object: Graph: Data
- Direct Select to change colors
Options for Graphs:
- Column
- Stacked
- Bar
- Line
- Area
- Scatter
- Pie
- Radar
These are the steps I would recommend for this project:
- Research / Data Gathering
- Compositional Layout – How are you going to present all this info?
- Typography + Color
- Design Icons/Elements
I will also do a technical demo on how to use the “Edit Colors/Recolor Artwork” feature in Illustrator so you can be sure you are certain about your color decisions.
