INSTRUCTIONS








TASK

Exercise 1: Quantify Data

On week 1, we were briefed on our module and assignments. One of our assignments is Quantify Data, where we had to choose an item and arrange it in a layout or chart.

The chosen item was coins, since I had a lot of it and it ranges in size.




In total, I had 20 coins, ranging from 50-5 cents. Some were old, rusted, and reflective. I made sure to include those data as well.


Flip Class Week 1
We were tasked to re design one poorly constructed infographic poster. I chose this informational infographic poster for me to re design in Canva:


Fig 1.1 Infographic Poster

This poster has clashing colors which hurts the eyes. Even though it is somewhat organized, it doesn't feel good to see because of the space between the title and the long paragraph, and the "Study Tips" title being too small, making the attention be more to the colors instead.


Shown below is the poster I re designed. I made sure to have hiearchy and spaces between the paragraphs so it wont look squished together and made it easier to read. I kept it simple too, so it doesn't require the eye to work harder, but to focus on the texts instead.

Exercise 2: L.A.T.C.H

On week 2, we learned what L.A.T.C.H infographics are and was assigned to make a pokemon based poster with minimum 4 principles. I don't really know about Pokemon but I did my researched and figured doing a 7th gen pokemon would be interesting because of the characters. 

In adobe illustrator, I first make a gradient background with a pastel green color and created an isometric island consisting of mountains, water, and grass to later showcase my pokemon. 





Next, I added different shadow colors to make it more 3D.




I created the first category which is plant, where I used a gradient teal for the background and showed each of the pokemon evolutions along with their names.





Finally, I put a pokemon logo title and add a description at the bottom to explain more about the Pokemon.


Category: The pokemons are categorized in different categories, plant, water, rock, and ice.


Alphabet: The names of the pokemons


Location: Each category is pointing to the location in the isometric vector.


Hiearchy: Title is te biggest, then isometric, the category of pokemons, and finally the description at the bottom.
