Why Use Our Event Services?

Beat the “Death by Powerpoint”

Research shows that the “Picture Superiority Effect” helps audiences remember 65% of information days later, compared to just 10% of text alone. When an artist is visualising ideas live, it creates a “feedback loop” of attention. Attendees aren’t checking their phones; they are watching their own ideas take shape, which deepens connection and understanding.

3 Ways We Transform Events

  • Boost Engagement: Watching an illustration emerge from a blank canvas is magnetic. It keeps energy levels high during long panels or complex strategy sessions.
  • Synthesise Complexity: We listen for the gold. We filter out the fluff and capture the key themes, connecting the dots between speakers to reveal the bigger picture.
  • Create Instant Content: Don’t let the ideas evaporate when the microphone turns off. You get immediate, shareable assets for social media, internal newsletters, and post-event reports.

    “Sketch Group were a brilliant addition to the School to Work Round Table. To have a visual representation of the conversations assisted different learning styles to really immerse in the session. It is also a great prompt post event of all the nuggets of gold that came up in conversation. Well done to Lucinda for capturing the event perfectly.”

    “We are thrilled to be able to work with the Sketch GROUP on capturing the voices of consumers and their families, carers and supporters as we discuss the ways in which we can better meet the needs and expectations of people who use or engage with our mental health services. The outcomes of these discussions are brought to life through the words and images recorded by the graphic facilitators. We can’t wait to book in the next session.”

  • Andrew Bird Foundstone Advisory

    “The Sketch Group team were so awesome in REALLY listening to our conversation and then bringing it to life in an amazing live sketch image. The end result was definitely better than we expected and already have had great client feedback! We would highly recommend Sketch Group.”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do you know the content in advance?

    Not really. As a graphic recorder, we listen to what’s being said, and create a visual summary of what we’ve heard. That said, it can be helpful to involve us closely in the lead-up to the event. Knowing the agenda for the day, the names of speakers, and other details makes our job a lot easier!

  • What surface do you work on?

    It depends! Sometimes we’ll work on a large roll of paper, taped to the wall. Other times we might use foam core. Some of our team prefer working on a whiteboard. And sometimes we’ll work digitally (on an iPad) and project that to a screen or onto the wall with a projector. Get in touch and we’ll help you decide what will work best for your event.

  • Can we keep the canvas after the event?

    Absolutely. If you want to gift it to the speaker, or hang the original up in the office, go for it! We’ll also email you a copy that you can send to participants, share with those who couldn’t make it on the day, or publish to social media when promoting your next event.

  • Can you handle large-scale conferences with multiple breakout rooms?

    Absolutely. We have a deep bench of talented artists across Australia. We can deploy a team to cover concurrent sessions, ensuring that no matter which room your attendees are in, the key insights are being visualised and captured.

  • Can you make changes to the canvas after the event?

    Yes! If there’s something that was captured that you’d like removed, or changed, or you’d like something added, such as a sponsor logo, we can absolutely make these changes to the image after the fact.

  • Can you turn the canvas into a time-lapse video?

    Yes! In fact, if your graphic recorder is working on an iPad, then it’s possible for us to export a time-lapse video for you to publish on social media or send to attendees (here’s an example). It’s also possible to create a video from a photograph of a paper canvas. Get in touch to discuss your options here.
