At Sketch Group, we’ve had the privilege of using graphic recording in a variety of settings—each with its own unique impact. No matter the setting, our goal remains the same: to translate words into visuals that enhance understanding, inspire action, and make a lasting impression.

Types of Events to Use Graphic Recording

Whether it’s capturing the keynotes of a plenary presentation, visually summarising strategic workshops, or adding an interactive element to a special occasion, our live scribing helps bring conversations to life in real time.

Here are some examples of when you can use graphic recording:

  • Conferences & Summits – Capture keynotes, panel discussions and breakout sessions
  • Workshops & Trainings – Enhance learning and retention
  • Strategy & Planning Meetings – Bring clarity and alignment to team discussions
  • Public Forums & Town Halls – Visually represent diverse perspectives and key takeaways
  • Entertainment & Interactive Events – Engage audiences with live, dynamic illustrations
  • Webinars & Virtual Events – Keep remote participants engaged with live digital scribing

Ways to use your visual summary once your event is over

Graphic recording isn’t just for the day of your event – it continues to provide value long after. Here are some creative ways to make the most of it:

  • Social Media – Spark conversation and extend your event’s reach by sharing your event’s canvas on social media
  • Articles, eBooks or Reports – Publish a visual summary or embed cut-down images from the canvas and use in a brochure or report that you write up as part of the event
  • Presentations – Replace PowerPoint slides with your graphic recording and reinforce key insights in future presentations or meetings
  • Frame it – Turn it into a meaningful keepsake or office artwork by printing the digital copy to whatever size you like
  • Marketing Collateral – Repurpose images from the visual summary into promotional materials
  • Infographic – Turn your graphic recording into an infographic that is engaging and easy to share
  • Gift – A unique and thoughtful token of appreciation to speakers at your event

Graphic recording transforms events by making discussions more engaging, memorable, and accessible. It captures key insights in real time, helps audiences connect with complex ideas, and creates a lasting visual resource that can be shared and repurposed long after the event. Whether you want to boost engagement, enhance learning, or extend your message’s impact, graphic recording is a powerful tool to bring your event to life.
