Developing skills and experimenting with tools



After further research around good info graphics and checking out the links(list can be found in previous blog), I have used my current knowledge and know how to create this.


As shown in the video, I changed the background to make it more interesting during the documentary I found that video full of color transitioning into a white background info graphic doesn't look that appealing at all so while experimenting and understanding powerpoint more, I found a way to change to change the background of the infographic and evidently looks more interesting than a white background.

To make the infographic more interesting, I added some outline of images to make the presentation more unique such as having an outline of a plastic bottle which says plastic bottle and an outline of a fish which says marine litter, all of this is done to make the presentation stand out more than it should and my previous works as back then I never had the time to experiment enough to reach this stage.

Overall, the video wasn't as good as I expected, I should try out different and more complex transitions such as turning chunks of text at a certain angle and continue the animation just like the Kinetic Typography video. Either way, my director said that I should keep making more infographics as practice to familiarize myself with powepoint as preparation for my final product.
