Craft

This infographic was constructed to showcase the evolution of the Christian cross. This was made using Adobe Illustrator. There was a lot of skill used to make this considering that it take skill a great skill in computer programs to understand how to execute a successful design. Such tools in the program that was used would be color, copy & paste, pin tools, and more along with the skill to draw my ideas with manually. In all, the steps were simply to make a layer, create points of different objects such as the continents and the color coated system, and more. These are different as compared to each other simply because each update of the infographic become more complex.

Concept 

         This infographic was made to appeal to the sight of the audience. The layout of the map with its different continents, crosses, and guided text will allow other to understand it. I arranged it this way so that I can easily create a color-coded system and merge time into it with or with out it. The first thing that is supposed to be seen is the continents, and the second things seen is a text box that introduces and shipped locations is. The entire goal of the art in this infographic to represent the evolution of the cross visually with colors and symbols and as little number of words.

Composition

         The use of the brain in this infographic is that the left side begins to work due to the rise and others on the right slow out. The overall message that is going to be told is that the Christian cross has been changed for hundreds of thousand of years. This sacred symbol of a living sacrifice was not just know in America but in other countries such as Spain, Egypt, and Christo. There is the same composition when it comes to they varied infographics because they all show the same information just in a different way.
