Icon Infographic Development

 

After the crit it was quite apparent that I hadn't done much infographic work.  I had worked with pie charts and other circular graphics but I thought I would go further by working in lines.  Whether this be representing the most expensive player with every icon worth 10 million, sizing the icons in relation to cost or creating bar graphs that correspond to each icon.  

It was a different way of working that has resulted in me creating a strong feature for my individual player section.

Final Crit: 16/5




Thoughts after the crit:

I think the feedback I received is helpful, it will allow me to focus down my project well.  There are comments about the monotone images not working with the icons, so I need to find a harmonious method to suit both image and vector.

Also, there isn't an evidence of range, which I need to make obvious.  By mocking up different publications for teams, players, positions etc. I can communicate this.

Progress Crit: Thoughts





---


3 questions to ask:
  1. Will the simple circular forms of info-graphic fit well into the publication?  Would you like to see other types of info-graphics in there?
  2. Do you think the icons of the teams would be easy to identify without the captions?
  3. Would the inclusion of photographs benefit the publication?
