Sketchnoting Practice : July 2015 [Structured Session]

Escape the heat of July with some cool back-to-basics Sketchnoting!

This evening event is structured time for learning, exploring and improving our sketchnote practice.

At this meetup we'll do a quick intro to visual note-taking, then practice elements of visual vocabulary like lettering and concept images in a series of Rapid Rounds. After that we'll jump into sketchnoting a TED talk. And then close the evening with a collaborative gallery where we'll share our work and offer constructive critique.

If you're new to sketchnoting, this is a great way to get started. And if you're an expert, it's a fun time to practice and share with others. All skill levels welcome!
