Can someone comment on the fonts I have used, they are Adam and Caviar Dreams. I don't feel like I have used them correctly. Another font(s) I could use?

>space and shit = use typo that looks futuristic and modern, nigga

Get you some thin ass sans, set them bitches in all caps, throw in a fuckload of tracking. Bam, your typography is a fuckin' astronaut. Ditch the serifs unless it's for body copy. Wait, no just use sans for everything.

Now let's talk palette, bitch. Cause this whole microsoft powerpoint corporate grey thing you're doing is busted as fuck.

Lucky for you, space is already a thing. It's got a color palette that people see and think, Oh look, there's some outer space shit going on here. First off, it's black like your dad's ass, and empty unlike your dad's ass. So keep the shit dark, with lots of negative....space.

Look up some pictures of space. Try to find real ones, not the ones that NASA uses to lie to us about the moon landing. There's already a color scheme to work with, and it turns out that some of the shit is complementary as fuck. I grabbed this picture of some space jizz from Pixabay. See all that orange and blue and white? Blam. Your color scheme is figured out.

You can do what I did and accent your headlines with that hazy little effect called an "outer glow", but don't get carried away with that shit because it doesn't take much to look tacky as a motherfucker. If I find out you've been abusing photoshop effects, I'll find you and slap your parents, your teacher, your pets, and your bitch.

Throw in some spaceship looking shit, like that grainy screen effect on the subheading (»AYYY). Look up interfaces from your favorite sci-fi shit (mine is looking like a broke ass version of Dead Space). Take inspo from that. And it's an infographic, embellish it a little (but that doesn't mean you get to throw restraint out the window, you cocksucker).

Now, fuck my five minute design and my ten minute lecture. Do some cool shit and maybe show us what you come up with.

This, you want your font to be from the future, sleek, technological, basic, stay away from anything fancy, curly or has useless frills.

People seem to forget when picking a font it's got to tell you about the design without even reading the words. You wouldn't use a pixel font in a Victorian England design, and you wouldn't use curly shit for spaaaaaaaace.

New update, any ideas on how to make text more clear towards the center? Gaussian Blur? Solid shape?

>>261488
colors, don't be afraid of them

>>261489
Name some colors or suggest ways in which I could use them and then I will consider it.

THAT DOES NOT FUCKING HELP

I have read it, this is a fucking info graphic for a historical subject. I am supposed to cram masses of text and images onto an A3 sheet.

Historical context>Aestetics

Why did you come to the graphic design board then?

Just finished adding the text and images, time for color and generally improvement.

>>261514
Hmm, I mean we should focus on the design aspect here but can you throw in a timeline or a diagram? Pure text is a bit tedious.

Also the grey text doesn't offer much contrast on the background and since sans is already harder to read it's straining to read.

Photoshop Lighting effects anyone?

Don't forget to write that the Soviet Union actually won the space race, because they got to the objective (space) first

Either it's your punk ass teacher, or it's you my man, but somebody here isn't getting what an infographic is about.

That wall of copy you're trying to jam fuck into my eyes? That's just way too much shit for an infographic. If you gotta include all that for the assignment, you're better off using a time tested method of conveying large amounts of information: write a fuckin essay.

Now, an infographic is about taking some info (not ALL the info god dammit), and representing it visually. Like say you got some data on how many loads you can take without gagging. That might be some interesting shit, but just telling me the numbers doesn't really deliver the impact that kind of data can have. Now find a way to represent it visually:

OP can take 570 loads without gagging
That's enough to fill a large cooler!
(Followed by an illustration of you doing the ice bucket challenge but with a bunch of cum)

Pick out maybe 8 interesting facts about space racism, and follow that formula. Unless you're required to actually use all that shit you been posting, in which case you're

Holy fucking shit op, fuck off and do your shit how you wanted to

This. Both in this and the god awful art communications folder thread you just ignore the actual advice people give you.

On your own you create some pretty mediocre results so get fucking real and take some advice.

>>261524
This looks better but with this much text the graphic part of an infographic really doesn't matter much. It's not like you integrated stats or polls so you can most likely keep it simple.
