Learn to convey complex data through infographics in motion, from the initial sketch and storyboard to the final animation

Want to explain a complicated topic using an easy-to-understand multimedia language? Then make it into an infographic! In this online course, learn to create animated infographics alongside Riccardo and Valerio from Studio Mistaker, a multidisciplinary design studio that has worked with brands like Enel and Generali, as well as publications such as La Repubblica and L’Espresso.

Learn to distill complex information by examining different approaches to data visualization. Then, sketch out your ideas as simple shapes on paper, arrange them into a storyboard, and bring them to life with animation. Riccardo and Valerio teach you the fundamentals of motion graphics in After Effects and, by the end of the course, you'll know how to convey information on any subject in a multimedia format, whether static or in motion.
