For the love of the game: Power BI Story Telling Techniques for AFL

Level: Beginner

For those people passionate about the AFL, statistics and data are everything. However, over a long history of the sport, there have been few centralised dashboards generated to visualise this comprehensive database. Join Christian as he shares tips and tricks to build your own interactive and user-friendly dashboard within Power BI, showcasing his example created for the AFL. This will be an interactive demo heavy session, packed full of the top Power BI visuals, DAX patterns and key sporting metrics, which will show how you can narrate the history of any sport you are passionate about. Christian will show you how you can combine graphic design within dashboards to help bring your data to life and create a more engaging user experience. He will also guide you through feedback received from the AFL community, and challenges DiscoverEI faced in selecting specific visuals that could tell the story to even the most non-data savvy person. Come along to this session to learn practical tips and tricks to visualise our data stories in Power BI, and discover new insights into the history of Australia’s national game!
