For so long in High school the only design experience I had was putting together text and pictures to create a newspaper layout. Even though I loved doing it, it had started to get a little tedious. It was simple and not a lot of design strategy went into it. I miss putting in the effort to make something look interesting, finding colors that work well together, and choosing the perfect font.
It’s a little strange that the first opportunity to do something like this would be for an English class.
As I was researching an infographic in class on Wednesday words like juxtaposition and typography came up and it reminded me of my freshman graphic design class. I had forgotten how much I liked designing things, and this project will hopefully bring back the motivation to start designing again.
I've never done an infographic before though, so it will be a new experience for me. I don’t even know where to start, but hopefully the ideas will come to be easily like they have done in the past.
