  Exercise 2 - LATCH  

Students are required to organize a series of information into a visual poster that incorporates and applies LATCH principles (minimum 4). Use available digital photo editing or illustration software to combine the information into a LATCH infographic poster. Students are allowed to reuse back the images but you have to create the rest of the visuals to complete the poster.

Requirement:

1. Size resolution: A4 size

2. Progress and submission link on E-Portfolio.

I decided to use the theme, Honkai: Star Rail, as the theme for this exercise. After gaining the information from its fandom wiki website. I roughly categorise all the information by using the LATCH principles:

L (Location)
- Herta Space Station
- Jarilo-Vi
- Xianzhou Luofu
- Penacony

A (Alphabet)

*This principle will be applied on character's name.

- Boothill

- Bronya

- Firefly

- Fugue

- Gallagher

- Gepard

- Imbihitor Lunae

- Jing Yuan

- Lynx

- Luocha

- Pela

- Robin

- Sampo

- Seele

T (Time)
*This principle will be applied to the latest location updates, following their version order.
2022 - Jarilo-VI
2023 - Xianzhou Luofu
2024 - Penacony

C (Category)

*This principle will be applied to the characters' elements type.

- Physical

- Fire

- Ice

- Lightning

- Wind

- Quantum

- Imaginary

Moving on to Illustrator, I've reorganised the placement of the information. The pictures and information are all taken from Honkai: Star Rail Wiki Fandom website.

  Reflection  

This exercise provided valuable insight into organizing complex information using the LATCH principles. By choosing Honkai: Star Rail as the theme, I was able to work with familiar content while enhancing my understanding of structured data visualization.

This task not only strengthened my design and software skills but also reinforced the importance of clear, logical presentation when dealing with diverse datasets.
