Speaker
Description
The goal of this workshop is to teach attendees basic conscious and responsible, strategies for motivating viewers towards action, and some compositional design principles to create information graphics for grassroots/political movements. This session will begin with a short presentation with visual examples. It will then move into some quick drafting games to practice basic design techniques. Attendees will then be given time to draft infographics and it will conclude with a group discussion of some of the drafted works to further explore strategies and opportunities to elevate the works. Attendees will benefit from this workshop by having the opportunity to get a crash course in conscious and responsible principles in design and strategies for motivating people to action. This is also an opportunity to practice quick drafting techniques to quickly move towards constructive dialogue to elevate the work. Attendees need not have design or data storytelling experience to join.
