Chile miners [6]



Chile miners infographic from the Times

I completely forgot to pass this on

Busy times

Indeed a busy time at The Times

This was printed the day of the rescue

Read it, paw over it. It had everything

I don't often like the "kitchen sink" approach to graphics, but I have to admit that I really did like

Above all - it feels like the team at the Times had fun;

With the research

With the planning

With the drawing

With the design

Hats off!

Thanks to Matt Swift!

Chilean miners trapped in San Jose mine – more amazing interactives

Great work at the BBC

Click here to see the wonderful animated infographics that show everything you need to know

Really well rendered, they remind me of the great work that came out of el Pais and el Mundo of Spain in late nineties and the turn of the millennium

I would love to see what Rafa Hohr is up to with the Sunday Times, but a subscription wall stands between my curiosity and no doubt bloody good work...

Chilean miners trapped in San Jose mine




Chilean miners trapped in San Jose mine: latest infographics from Sunday newspapers

The Independent on Sunday eschewed the trend for "rock textures" to give a stylised guide to the rescue. Informative, and designed to work with the page, the "yellow brick road" approach offers quite a lot of bite-sized information in a small space. Also important to note the reappearance of Glenn Swan's byline in the press.

Good luck Glenn

Second, Fleet Street's behemoth the Sunday Times takes perspective of the "journey to the surface". Its great. Rigorous and nicely rendered with very 'agreeable' illustrative details

Last, the Sunday Telegraph went 'balls-out' with information and attention to the details. It very much feels like a graphic you want to spent some time with. Even better with a pint on a lazy Sunday afternoon. This example also marks the return of Richard Burgess to the Telegraph group

It would be great to see examples from Spain, Latin America etc...
