Instruction

Flip 1: Different Types of Infographics and Online Tools

Mission

~Look for an infographic with a faulty design from free online infographic creator and recreate the infographic.

Faulty Design

Figure 1.0 Infographic from Canva

~  The reason I chose this infographic to recreate is it took simple but too hard to get viewers attention. Besides, even though the colours are linked to the topic, but the viewers may not be interested in this infographic for information. The description also can not notice easily by viewers because it look like same to the subheading description . There is a huge mistake that had happened ,the number 2 and 5 had repeat already .

Visual Research

Figure 1.2

~  I had search a few good example and using some parts into my infographic design.

Visual Research

~ I decided to chose The Lion King because my zodiac sign is Leo and the lion is a very powerful animal, it also means very brave and in this era, lions keep decreasing and they facing endangered animals. This problem is most serious in Africa.
