my Practice

Ideas are brought to life through visual scribing, digital graphics, post-production processes and graphic reporting. These processes make complex topics accessible and meaningful for diverse audiences.

Live scribing

Capturing the essence of live discussions, conferences and workshops in real-time; transforming complex conversations into engaging, hand-drawn visuals. The images help participants better understand and reflect on key points as they emerge.

Engagement

Live scribing activities encourage participant engagement by visually capturing important ideas, making discussions more interactive and memorable.

Clarity 

Help break down complex ideas into simple, digestible visual summaries, enhancing understanding across diverse audiences.

Real-Time Visualisation

Visuals are created in response to the moment, ensuring that key messages and insights are immediately captured and ready for reflection.

Versatility

Hand-drawn visuals can be used in post-event materials, reports or social media to continue the conversation and spread key insights.

Refinement

We fine-tune the visuals to improve clarity and aesthetic appeal while preserving their original energy and authenticity.

Tailored Approach

Our refinement process is tailored to your needs, aligning the final outputs with your project’s objectives and audience.

Long-Term Use

These refined visuals are ideal for a variety of purposes, from reports and presentations to promotional materials.

Post-Event Visual Refinement

Once live scribing activities are complete, we further refine the visuals to ensure they are cohesive and impactful. The post-event refinement enhances the clarity and coherence of the visuals without losing the immediacy and authenticity of the original work.

Digital Graphics

Hand-drawn visual notes are transformed into polished digital graphics, ideal for sharing and publication. These refined visuals ensure that research findings or event discussions are presented clearly and professionally.

Customisation

The visuals are adapted and refined to reflect the core message clearly and accurately, tailored to the needs of different audiences.

Wide Applicability

Digital graphics are suitable for use across platforms, from formal reports to social media, helping you communicate your message effectively.

Professional Finish

Hand-drawn visuals are digitally enhanced using professional tools to ensure they are clean, polished and ready for publication.

Visually-Driven Reports

Integrating illustrations and graphics into reporting, helping to communicate complex findings in a clear, engaging format.

Engaging and Informative

By combining visual elements with concise text, reports are designed to be both informative and engaging, enhancing understanding and retention.

Audience-Centred Design

Visual reports are tailored to suit different audiences, from academics to the general public, ensuring the key message is accessible and impactful.

Visual Reporting

Visual reports synthesise research findings, event outcomes and community engagement activities into engaging and accessible documents. These reports combine clear visual elements with a strong narrative, helping research findings reach a broader audience.
