Hi! My name is Daniela Leitner, I’m a German Communication Designer with a great passion for explaining science. I take pictures, make films, illustrate in 2D or 3D and mix these techniques to create new extraordinary visual worlds that impart knowledge in an understandable, fresh and sometimes humorous way. Besides that, I’m author for popular science books (»Als das Licht laufen lernte«). For scientists and students I also provide creative-workshops, in which the participants can take a look behind the scenes of my kind of working. Thereby they learn how to communicate scientific issues visually – in a way that arouses interest and reaches the target group accurately.

Infographics explain complex aspects way better, faster and more exciting than pure text alone can do – whether in popular science or in a graphical abstract for scientific journals.

Illustrations and Photographies transform information into stories that arouse emotions – thereby it’s easier to memorize them.

Editorial Design combines text and images to a strong unity to breathe life into the content of books and magazines.

Films and Animations impart knowledge in a very special way. Moving images, combined with music, unfold a huge impact. Therefore they are extremely easy remembered, when it is to convey information in a short period of time.
