Deck from the Sketchnotes-SF meetup in May at Neo [http://neo.com/]. We practiced visualizing 1-to-1 conversation.We started with a quick warm-up, then jumped into rapid practice, visually explaining something to someone else, and then visually capturing something being explained to you by someone else. A high point was seeing the fabulous work from the "sketch your day" warm-up activity. We shared work at a collaborative critique and learned a lot from each other. The evening wrapped up with links to resources to explore.
Special Shoutout to @MollyClare who was the co-creator of the "talk & listen" activity, and who is pioneering visual notetaking at WhiteboardWarrior.org (http://whiteboardwarrior.org).
