Infographics

Conducting Business at the Orchestra
The Florida Times-Union
This graphic ran on the front page of the main section. Given the boring nature of financial statistics, I decided to make an engaging illustrative graphic with lots of layers of information comparing multiple area symphonies and their financial statistics. This graphic won several awards, including SPJ 1st place in Graphic Design and FSNE 3rd place in News Graphics.
How to Brew Beer
The Florida Times-Union
This graphic ran on the front page of our lifestyle section and involved a lot of research interviewing brewers to create the best possible starter guide. I coordinated with a photographer to obtain pictures of the brewing process to correspond to the graphic.
