What our clients say
I found this workshop extremely valuable, motivating and inspiring. I’m going to work really hard to bring ideas/reports to life in a much more engaging way.
Steph O, Ministry for Primary Industries
I would recommend this workshop to anyone who needs to do infographics for their mahi. It is well structured and delivered, with plenty of gems to take away with you. This workshop has made me think more intentionally about how I display information, and how I can make the greatest impact on my audience.
Merekingi H, private client
This course is really helpful for someone wanting to know more about creating an effective visual story. Even for people who have experience with design or in the creative field, this still helps provide a more structured and logical approach to creating an infographic. Points like when and when not to create an infographic, how to present data using graphs, tables, proper use of icons and where the add value, use of colour and to make it more accessible to people, I found really valuable.
