• Come prepared to answer questions, including but not limited to:
• Who is the target audience of your visualisation?
• What is the key message of your visualisation?
• What alternative visualisations, or visualisation choices, did you
consider? How did you arrive at your final visualisation?
• What aspect(s) of your visualisation could be improved? Was there
anything you wanted to do that wasn't feasible?

• Additional materials can also be used, such as earlier drafts
Some tips
