Update on Terence Oliver

As reported here earlier, Terence Oliver is now teaching some design and infographics classes at the University of North Carolina. ‘’However,” he writes, “the exciting part is that I will also be teaching motion graphics, where students will tell stories utilizing contemporary infographics for the web that combine words, visuals, video, motion, sound and voice-over narratives to explain newsworthy stories in a fresh, dynamic and clear manner.”

Oliver has an associate’s degree in commercial art from Michigan’s Ferris State University, a bachelor’s degree in advertising from that same school and a master’s degree in art education from Ohio University.

He worked as an artist and designer at the Cleveland Plain Dealer and Beacon Journal, working his way up to art director and assistant managing editor at the Beacon. He has also taught at Kent State University and at the Poynter Institute.
