Infographics

Infographics are graphic visual representations of information, data or knowledge intended to present information quickly and clearly. They can improve cognition by utilising graphics to enhance the human visual system's ability to see patterns and trends.

As my publication will contain some facts and figures I wanted to present them in a fun and engaging way. The booklet has a serious tone throughout and mainly consists of blocks of text with the occasional image therefore I wanted to create an interesting page to break this up.

I looked at examples online that show simple pie charts but in more unique ways. I really like this above example and how they have made the pie chart more engaging, rather than just a flat one dimensional circle it has enlarged sections that have been elongated and overlap each other, this makes the information easier to read but also highlights the important sections and draws your attention to these first. 

I can move this to my infographic board now!

I also really liked this unique take on a pie chart and think it looks really pleasing. it doesn't use the traditional circle associated with a pie chart but it still present the information in a simplistic way. You can see the size of the section, the name of it and the % on it therefore it provides all the necessary information. 
As my facts just contain one percentage this design would not work with my information however I do like this idea.
