ReplyDeleteHi Mrs. Todd I think this infographic is appealing because it has lovely colors and all correct stats in great order. I think this design was affective because of he order and the colors that it was set in. With this design I wouldn't change anything about this infograph because it has perfect colors and placement of stats and stuff like that.

ReplyDelete1. I like this infographic because it shows you what stuff is in a burger (fast food and homemade) and how much of that stuff is in it.
2. I like the use of colour in it because it looks really interesting.
3. I would change the lines showing how much fat, carbs, calories, protein and salt because the second lowest number of whatever would be in front of all the other lines.
Mrs Todd,
ReplyDeleteI think that an infographic is an easy way of learning without having to do lots of research. You still learn the same but you don't have to read as much. from lily
http://www.wordstream.com/blog/ws/2015/01/13/ - the third one, colour emotions.
ReplyDelete1. I like this infographic and I think it is appealing because when I came across the infographic it stood out and grabbed my attention. it shows you things about colour emotions. Very interesting!
2. I think the colours that the infographic has used is really great, it is neat and the layout is good, everything is not just all over the place.
3. I would not change anything about this infographic.
1.You have to show data, You shouldn't use charts and pie graphs, so make the charts and pie graphs more creative, Use type when needed.
ReplyDelete2. I think pictures or graphics are important because it makes it become interesting. People would be tempted to read it.
try to make your infographic unique, e.g. don't just do a pie chart, do something or put some things around the chart to make it more effective.
ReplyDeletedesign with consistency.
use appropriate colours, that match with your theme.
Canva is used to create infographics, you can choose different templates, like facebook cover, invitation, a4 doc... etc. You can add pictures, words, backgrounds, banners, arrows, stickers, and much more. You add your information into your text box and you can add in images and other stuff to make your infographic more interesting. Lily.
ReplyDeletehello bloggers,
ReplyDelete1. why is it appealing?
I think its really interesting to have no technology presentation over the years technology has gone a long way and it interesting that we use infographics to do our presentation.
2 & 3 why is it an effective design? Would you change anything about it why or why not?
its fascinating that you can learn so much in just 5 minutes I love everything about it and I would not change a thing ?

hello bloggers,
ReplyDeleteI think when you do an infographic don't use pie chart and graphs or things we're all used to but if you decide to break the rules then make it unique that's the key make it interesting for viewers don't add too much text not many people like reading.
Text still needs to be in the infographic it has its rightful place but make sure you use you space and time wiely.

You can create all types of infographics and design it however you like. You can also make it look more interesting by adding text, photos or even change the transparency of a picture to make it blend in more. You can even change the colour of almost anything .
