Domestika - 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.
