Visual Communication Is Everywhere

Visual communication graphically represents information to efficiently and effectively create meaning. It has been utilized since the earliest known cave paintings to drive human connection and information delivery. But in recent years, we’ve started sharing more visual content than ever — in fact, 82% of all web traffic is comprised of video alone.

The conclusion is clear: visual content is here to stay. And brands that can master visual communication best practices will be able to engage their audiences on an unprecedented level. 

Visual communication content can appear in countless forms, including:

Annual Reports

An icon describing brand identity for digital marketing campaign design

Brand Identity

Conference Collateral

Dashboard Design

Data Visualization

An icon of an ebook to communicate ebook design services

eBooks

Infographics

Interactive Content

Motion Graphics

Presentation Design
