i was working for infographics for approximately 5 years and I faced many difficulties because of NOT following these 5 breakdowns. From today this will save my life forever. Thank you so much!!!

Great advice for entry level projects in designing infographics! One thing I would consider is conveying your message through your picture rather than depending on text with a supporting picture. A great infographic should be able to establish its ideas without next to no text. Good luck!

Damn! After months of struggling to make an infographic for my blog and spending hundreds of dollars to outsource this task to "designers, " I found this video.
I spend a lot of time learning how to use Illustrator mainly solely to do infographics and, even tho i got to a point where I am really good with it, I struggle a lot with the designing part.

This is exactly what i needed!
A road-map, a structure, a guide, a blueprint on what to do in order to make the process of creating an infographic as painless and hassle-free as possible.
Thanks a lot for putting this video out there!
