Explore Explain S1 E8: Rachael Dottle

I’m delighted to launch the first season of Explore Explain, a video and podcast series about data visualisation design.

For episode eight it was a pleasure to welcome Rachael Dottle. We had a detailed conversation about the design story behind a visualisation she created during the 2018 World Cup for FiveThirtyEight, titled ‘How France And Croatia Made It To The World Cup Final, In One Chart‘.
