Data Visualisation for Designers

What is data visualisation and why is it more important than ever? It’s an objective visual presentation of figures, findings, or facts, while information design is more subjective and provides an audience with instruction or information in a visually compelling way. This course is built to give you the skills to do both.

Framed from a strong design angle, this course will equip you with the skills necessary to interpret and transform objective data into visually engaging infographics. Additionally, you will also learn to design infographics with a more subjective nature or purpose, such as instruction. Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop and After Effects licenses included.
