Communication Practice

What is Infographic ?

'Interactive Information Graphic' this is what called Infographic. Infographic is a method of communication which so many things are included in it to deliver the message to the audiences.
In Infographic, attraction and interaction are used for the information transference.
The main consideration that i've understand in Infographic are:


Data visualisation :

 the information or statistic that to be shown is visualised

Interactivity  :

the message that flows (human and human) effectively.

Communicative function :

 Infographic purposes are to make viewers to catch up what is the information about easily. Additionally, a chart or a table which is complicated to be explained can be shown by designing it as Infographic.
