Good sources to impress

When we say "good sources" in this entry we talk about those that give good visual materials that help good information show off. In this sense,a book or an exhibition are good sources. Lets see examples from El Mundo (the first one we feature also has an excellent interactive infographics; the second one lets you "play" until you reach the page) and from El Periódico. 

EGB mission

In  Las Provincias, we usually feature it,they do more than good journalism . Not only information and design usually walk and in hand, but also they produce a "making of" some of their pages. Not always, and mostly in private, but they do it.  And these "making of documentaries" are as interesting as the pages they design. We show today another example:

In Barcelona´s streets

Today we feature five excellent examples from El Periódico. They are excellent because the themes are good, they are well-addressed and because the put into page is perfect.

Corruption in Galicia

Stories about corruption can be read in many newspapers. Today we want to show some we´ve read in  La Voz de Galicia. There´s day-to-day information —national and local—, but they always step forward.

Bartolomé and Marcos

Two stories about studying. We´ve read in Heraldo the story of Barlomé, a 93-year-old university student. Marcos is a hearing impaired student and we´ve read his story in La Voz de Galicia. We´ve always thought that the journalism that narrates stories about values is a better journalism.

Great investment

We finish the week with infographics. We´ve saved a good number of examples from various newspapers: El Correo, El Periódico, La Voz de Galicia, Las Provincias and La Vanguardia. 

Short after preparing this entry, Borja Ventura published in Yorokobu an excellent article titled... "I´m Spanish, What do you want me to infograph?". It´s worth reading. We also recommend to read, calmly, this recent interview with one of the best Spanish, infographics designer, Jaime Serra. 

Orlando walks again

Almost every newspaper has its "strong points". A solid one from Diario de Navarra it´s the follow-up work the paper does to injured people. They tend to inform until the story is "closed". Many times these are pieces of news that don´t shine for their length, that don´t stand out for the design. But that trickle of facts is great journalism. Last Sunday, this was the newspaper´s front-page: 

We knew about Orlando, the protagonist, the 6th of October. Since that day, we´ve been well informed.

To see it and to think: WOW!

When the put into page of an information is properly planned and it makes the reader stop in the page and think "wow!", that day has been well used. We don´t want to overwhelm with too many examples but we need to feature some recent ones. They are from El Mundo, Marca and Perú21.
