How it works
➢ Non-verbal communication
➢ Invokes an emotional response
➢ Easier to understand difficult concepts
We have all used visuals for years for obvious reasons
Things like…
maps or graphs…
With the magic of technology mixed with artistic effort, you can
make your visuals come alive!
interactive maps and stunning visuals…
Change your old school graphics into information filled
images…
Don’t try to explain where billions of dollars of budgets go…
…show it!!!!!
or make it .58 sterling
Show gravity…
bend light with gravity…
suck in all light with gravity…
The future is interactive Graphics
