[Music] hey guys Peyman again and this is part two of a multi-part series on how to create infographics in part one I talked to you about what makes a good infographic and in this video I'm going to talk to you about the types of infographics there's 13 different types I'm going to show you examples of each one and what type of content and data each one is composed up so before we get there I'm going to talk to you about information in general it is typically categorized in one of five ways content is categorized chronologically alphabetically geographically and also categorically and this one I always have a hard time saying hierarchically or hierarchically so let's go to the next part about the types of infographics number one is mix charts so mix charts is as the name implies is different types of charts and graphs combined into one infographic and it's basically best for many stats when you have a lot of stats facts and figures it makes charts would be a great you know format to utilize for example in this infographic here this is about various stats on Kobe Bryant so if you look at it we're utilizing they're utilizing a bar chart and also large stats and as well as radio radio charts and so on number two is an informational list this is actually a little bit of my least favorites because it's pretty much mostly composed of text infographics are supposed to be visual with the small amounts of information or text this one is kind of opposite of that but at the same time it is a type of infographic and what typically happens in these is that the message is driven mostly by words and not so much by visual components number three is a timeline this is actually very popular is you use it to pretty much show an evolution of something over a period of time if you want to tell a story it's a great format to use and also if you want to show these in a chronological order such as this example here what we're talking about classic cars on the big screen so you know also it's good for resumes and for telling grant stories to actually type often found in about us pages or various startups where they talk about the evolution their startup from a certain year to another number four is how to this is actually very common how to format and what you really do in this one is you have steps in creating something so you know and this one is a perfect post is talking about the different steps to do that and in another aspect how to's could be a matter of phases phase one two or three or might be a matter of a process and so on number five is process so process another type of file infographic and it is also referred to as a flowchart or a decision tree it's very common and often you know pretty much there's a net flow charts about everything the example here is about the process of brewing coffee six comparison is also very popular you see it all the time and what you do is you compare two products or two people or ideas or things next to each other I maybe two opposing things or two similar things so example here is you know categorize into the left and the right and actually using the color variation of blue versus red to differentiate the two side in terms of Netflix and red fox now number seven is location and typically what happens in this one is utilize regions or maps and you combine it with icons and color-coded regions it's used for comparing regional and global stats and also what you do often is you can associate statistics with a very specific location so there might be a country or a region you can actually utilize different statistics it may not even be a population it might be other general such as GDP values and other formats next one is photographic so photographic as the name implies you basically do is combine images and graphical elements such as the example here and in this one what's happening is you combine you know typically combine very simple lines and icons with the photograph with the photograph is really the the focal point and the secondary element such as alignment text or actually to follow through pieces or the accent elements number nine is higher hierarchical so what happens in this one is you take information and you present it according to certain levels now pyramid such as the one shown here is very common but you also may see it in different shapes as well number ten is a single chart so a single chart is one type of chart and you use that as a focal point of your data visualization so behind me is an example of the of the different heights of buildings where the One World Trade Center is the fourth at least as of 2014 tallest building in the world number eleven is visualizing numbers so ideal for adding visual interest to individual units of information and also you pretty much use it often for when you have various stats and figures this one here is the Heathrow Airport in numbers and there's a number of different statistics and different figures and they've been organized in a way and in different sizes and colors to actually separate the components of the figures from each other number 212 is anatomical so often use to create visual metaphors and also very often is use where you have the human body for example and you have information pointing to different parts of the human body to display certain stats and figures but also it may be used in other formats it may not necessarily the human body might be actual components about your product and you actually use different pointers to that product number thirteen is the visual resume so this is actually becoming very popular more and more it is a way for job seekers to make their resume stand out versus their competitors where in that case they may have just a text-based resume so you basically do is you turn your text resume into more of a visual format and it's a pretty much a growing trend to spice up your resume so these were the 13 different types of infographics basically no matter what type of infographics subject you want to create you pretty much will fall into one of these and decision you have to make is that which one which type is going to better allow you to present information that you want to provide to your audience so going to be talking more about that in the next few episodes and so that's the 12 different 13 different types of infographics talk to you guys later
