Sketchnoting: Communicate with Visual Notes
|
Learn to capture presentations and other content as well as take expressive meeting notes in real time by combining text and sketches
With just a few well-thought-out sketches, it’s possible to bring even the most abstract ideas to life. The art of sketchnoting gives designer and author Eva-Lotta Lamm the opportunity to approach a theme from a comprehensive perspective and discover connections between a whole host of apparently unrelated concepts. In this online course, she shows you how to use drawings as a practical tool to understand, contemplate, and communicate more efficiently.
Alongside Eva-Lotta, learn a new method of note-taking for meetings, videos, and other sources of information using sketchnotes. She reveals everything you need, from simple drawing skills to a mastery of composition and visual hierarchy on paper, along with how to filter and capture content and find appropriate images or metaphors. Discover how to boost your visual thought processes to learn new techniques, understand things around you, emphasize structure, and express concepts clearly.
Meet your teacher for the course, Eva-Lotta Lamm. She talks about her passion for visual thinking and shows you her main influences and sources of inspiration as an illustrator.
She then introduces you to the concept of sketchnoting as well as the materials and skills needed for this technique. Next, do some drawing exercises to help depict concepts quickly and easily. Eva-Lotta also shows you how to achieve a clear calligraphy style.
The key to visualization is designing content in which the most important parts are immediately apparent at first glance. So continue by learning how to structure your sketches to give them a visual hierarchy, before seeing how to find ideas for images to represent your content.
Now you have everything ready, it’s time to start on the sketchnotes for your first presentation. To do this, your teacher shows you how to prepare for and approach the biggest challenges when drawing. Take some time after the talk to add the finishing touches to your project.
