Sketchnotes: Note Taking for Visual Thinkers

Sketchnotes are a way of capturing ideas in an engaging and visual way by combining the power of sketching and writing. Last year, Eva-Lotta was invited by Typo Berlin and London to capture talks in a visual way (See the notes here) and she is back to live-sketch some of the sessions at Typo San Francisco. In her talk Eva-Lotta will give an introduction to this form of visual note taking and share the main characteristics that make it a great tool for designers (and anybody else) to capture conference talks, meetings or ideas. She'll show and analyse lots of examples from different sketchnoters and share tips from personal experience and will provide attendants with the main principles and building blocks of sketchnotes as well as lots of inspiration to jump straight into taking their own visual notes.
