Event Overview
Communicating ideas, be it a business plan or a story, is more effectively done with images. When we're learning, using images helps us remember faster and understand more deeply.
This introductory class will introduce you to many styles of sketchnoting, the reasons it works, and get you started developing a repertoire and style of your own. This is a hands on class, tailored to the participants, and open to anyone from professional illustrator to those who haven't used a pencil or marker for anything except underlining in years.
You'll walk out having learned how to draw a dinosaur, how to use lettering to enhance ideas, and how to triage all the crazy stuff a speaker is saying so you have time to get it on the page!
