Live illustration for conferences and workshops
Turn conversations into visuals people can actually see, understand and act on.
Live illustration (also known as graphic recording) captures talks, panels and workshops in real time - turning complex ideas into clear, engaging visuals your audience will actually remember.

Why it works
Why Live illustration at events works...
When people can see ideas, they understand them faster, remember them longer and are more likely to act on them.
-
Clarity — turn complex conversations into something everyone can follow
-
Engagement — keep audiences present, curious and involved
-
Commitment — create shared understanding people can get behind
-
Sharing — visuals that live on beyond the event

Tammy Day
Managing Director Leadership By Design
"As a facilitator I love working alongside Becky, to bring both clarity and colour to client projects.
She has a rare ability of being able to synthesise and simplify the most complex of topics from my Corporate clients, into visual summaries that are both actionable and beautiful.
She has a special talent for being able to tune-in quickly to both the words and emotional subtext of a workshop, and to hit the ground running at fast paced events. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Becky to direct clients and to other facilitators alike."
Harvey Wade
Managing Director, Innovate21
"In short, Becky is brilliant. Somehow she is able to capture the essence of what is being said and create amazing visuals that are memorable, insightful and impactful.
I really don’t know how she does it, but if you need a creative magician then you cannot do better than Becky!
Highly, highly recommended."
Christian Rangen
Founder, Strategy Tools
