Working with ImageThink: Graphic Recording
ImageThink is a visual strategy firm specializing in graphic recording, strategic visualization, and graphic facilitation. Graphic recording, or the translation of ideas, presentations, and discussions into imagery and text is our core service offering, and what we are most known for by our clients, readers, and fans. This blog showcases and explains the graphic recording journey for prospective clients.
Whether you’re hosting a strategic workshop, a conference, or a team brainstorming session, we ensure that key ideas are visually captured in real-time to inspire action and drive results. If you’re curious about how the process works, we’ll take you through the graphic recording journey below.
Step 1: Confirmation
After an initial Sales Call with our Sales Manager, your graphic recording journey begins with a confirmation process. This process handles payment, and once terms are reviewed and agreed upon, we’re ready to move forward with planning your event. This initial step sets the foundation for a smooth and effective collaboration.
Step 2: Planning Call
Once we’ve confirmed your event, we schedule a Planning Call with your team. During this critical phase, you’ll meet with our Account Team and the graphic recorder who will support your event. On the call, we’ll uncover the event’s objectives, key ideas, and important details. This call helps us tailor our visual approach to your goals, ensuring that our visual output aligns with your expectations and helps you achieve success.
Step 3: Logistics
We take care of all the logistics so you don’t have to. Whether it’s managing the supplies, coordinating travel, or boarding ImageThink’s graphic recorder, our team handles everything to ensure your event runs smoothly.
Step 4: Event Day
On the day of your event, our talented graphic recorders work in real time, actively listening and synthesizing key information. Whether your event is in-person or virtual, graphic recording creates depictions and messages that capture the essence of the conversation and help your attendees absorb and connect with content. As your event unfolds, our visual capture works to inspire your audience and keep them engaged during the session.
Step 5: ImageBoards
Following your engagement, we compile all of the finished visual assets into a digital gallery that is shared with you and your team. This gallery contains high resolution images that can be distributed to your attendees, printed for gifting, or shared across social media or company-wide channels. This collection of assets continues to extend the impact of your engagement long after it concludes, as you share and reflect on the insights captured.
Step 6: Reflection Call
After ImageThink has distributed your digital gallery to you and you’ve had time to review the final images, we’ll schedule a Reflection Call with you and others that contributed to the engagement. During this call, we’ll discuss how the graphic recording process went, what worked well, and explore ways to extend the impact of your visuals through next steps. We’re here to ensure you get the most out of your partnership with us, and this call is our way of showing that.
Graphic recording offers a dynamic way to bring your ideas to life, clarify and communicate your message, and inspire your audience. Could your next event benefit from real-time visual synthesis?
