Graphic recording - live visual summaries

 

 

An exciting way to get your audience interested and engaged and make sure they understand and remember what you say.

Graphic recording (also known as sketch-notes and live illustration) makes the content of a speech or meeting visual. 

It is an easy way to make your conference, meeting or kick-off more:

  • accessible
  • memorable
  • interactive, and 
  • engaging!

I work in English and Swedish at online events world-wide, and in-person events in southern Sweden and Denmark.

SWEDISH: Jag erbjuder mötesritning på både svenska och engelska. Jag jobbar digitalt över hela världen, samt live på plats runt om i södra Sverige och Danmark.

Mitt specialområde är graphic recording och visualisering på engelska för internationella företag och konferenser i Sverige.
