Live graphic capture of Conferences, Events and Meetings

How good would it be to create a more memorable conference, business event or meeting for participants by using a Graphic Recorder? Graphic Recording refers to the process of listening, synthesizing information and then presenting it using a combination of words and simple graphics, usually in the form of a big picture. Graphic Recording takes place in group settings for example, large scale events and conferences, open space and World Café style events and meetings. The graphic that's produced is essentially a summary of the content, process and outcomes of the event.

Vanessa will pitch up at your Conference, Event or Meeting with her boards, paper, pens and coloured markers and transform what people say and what she sees into a creative, large scale big picture; real time, right in front of peoples' eyes.

These unique graphics can be anything up to 15 ft long! They are bright, colourful and a stunning, visual summary of the event. They make a great memento for any event, they aid peoples' memory and help with the retention and recall of information. The careful combination of words and pictures captures the essence of the event and helps to bring ideas and information to life! After the event Vanessa will have the completed graphic professionally scanned so you have a high quality, electronic copy on disk, as well as the original graphic, to share with people.

Having Vanessa capture your session 'live' will help you to:

  • summarise key points and themes in a more memorable way
  • aid people to see the connections and links between individual points and the 'big picture'
  • provide a unique anchor and memory jogger for people once the event is over
  • stimulate interest from, and communicate with, people who weren't there even more easily!

Custom graphics

Have you got a vision, strategy, process, idea or message that you would like to get across to people in a more powerful way? Vanessa will work with you to produce a striking visual that you can use to get your message across more effectively. This could be a poster, a booklet, a series of flipcharts or even a custom drawn big picture.

"Working with Vanessa on our project was an absolute joy. Her enthusiasm and professionalism was second to none. She transformed our ideas into images that were beyond our expectations and we now proudly display our graphic in our staff restaurant for all to see."
