Explanation Graphic - 2 iterations & Final


I created an explanation graphic on how to download pictures from a camera to a computer, specifically a PC.  I included two drafts along with the final to show how I improved each time.  The main difference between the first and second draft was the organization method used.  I first just used numbers to go through the steps, however I think that the table is a more clear way to separate each step and is more visually clean.  I kept the words to a minimum to decrease the cognitive load and tried to put more focus on the images to compliment the words.  I decided to use digital images instead of drawings for my final draft because since the "parts" of the camera/computer are complex and I'm not an artist, it would be better understood with real images.  I kept the organizational method of the table as well as adding the use of color.  I used red to emphasize where something is as well as arrows to point certain things out.
