A NEW SHOW EXPLAINS HOW SEVERAL OF HIS INFOGRAPHIC MASTERPIECES WERE MADE.
The first post about Fernando’s process (in February) featured the story behind his National Geographic sabertooth project: https://wp.me/p7LiLW-3iR
It also previewed an exhibition (then under construction) that provides a comprehensive look, for the first time, at the development of Fernando’s Nat Geo infographics for print and digital.
The show was assembled for the first time this summer at Augsburg University of Applied Sciences (Germany) in their “HSA_transmitter” innovation room. Unfortunately, it could only be viewed properly by appointment (because of pandemic restrictions), but the overall effect was tantalizingly seen from the sidewalk through large windows. Anyway, this is a traveling show that will be seen at several other locations in the future. The next stop planned is Lucerne University. Also, it will be possible to borrow the show and present it at your location.

Me… I was involved with the text side of the project, which was a great opportunity to study all the elements of this insightful show.
And, obviously, a huge contribution was made by Fernando put all this together.
