About the Event
Do you enjoy bringing stories to life by drawing, sketching, and hand-lettering? Do you want to learn about how you can take those skills and turn them into a career?
Sketchnotes are rich visual notes incorporating a mix of handwriting, shapes, and visual elements. They are often used to provide visualalize in informative videos or to contextualize speaker events.
During this workshop, you will learn and practice 3 basic principles of sketch notes to capture and communicate information effectively. You will also get a glimpse of the industry and how you can use visual notes to study and self-learn.

Born and raised in Costa Rica, he now lives in Atlanta with his wife, son, cat, fish and whichever wild animal comes to have a bite at his vegetable garden.
Registration Fee: $5
