Gestalten.tv (HD) - Research Is Key

As founder and creative director of 5W Infographics and former art director of National Geographic Magazine from 2008 to 2014, Juan Velasco is one of the biggest names in information design today. While in Berlin last fall to lead a two-day Gestalten workshop, the data visualization expert sat down with Gestalten.tv to share his views on the difference between visual journalism and text-based reporting. He also explains the process behind his own rich yet clear narratives and points out some areas for improvement within this popular and ever-evolving field. Gestalten is also very excited to join forces with Juan Velasco this month to bring our successful workshop The Power of Infographics to Singapore. This two-day workshop, hosted with partner Methodology on January 29-30, 2015, explains the role of infographics in visual storytelling and how to create your own.
