“Isn’t this a distraction?”

This is a common misconception we hear about visual note-taking.

If you’ve never seen it happen live, you might think it distracts from the content being presented.

However, visual notes actually reinforce the message and give attendees a visual to follow along with. This allows attendees to stay engaged, helps visual learners process information, and connects the dots between new concepts.

It’s Team Member Spotlight time! Today we’re shouting out Kinshasa, one of our artists.

On-site, she shows up smiling and ready: calm, client-facing, and completely in her element. When she’s in the studio, you know you’re going to spend the day laughing and yapping.

Kinshasa has an eye for style and beauty in everything she touches, from the art she creates here at Ink Factory to her personal work to the way she carries herself.

We’re so lucky to have her on the team! Show some love in the comments. 🫶

Complex conversations can be hard to digest.

Visual notes help keep the focus on the topic, break down information into digestible bits, and connect the dots between ideas.

It’s time for a team member spotlight!

Meet Emma, one of Ink Factory’s talented artists.

Emma is the type of person who radiates positivity and warmth. When it comes to her work, she pays attention to the small details, handles every situation with grace, and has a true care for what she is creating and the clients she’s in the room with.

Her sincerity expands to every interaction, whether in the workplace or her personal life. She always has a story to tell and a laugh to give.

Thanks for being a part of the Ink Factory team, Emma!

What is the difference between digital visual notes, physical visual notes, and virtual visual notes?

Digital visual notes are created with the artist onsite using an iPad. These can be broadcast in real-time on a TV or projector.

Physical visual notes are created by the artist onsite using large physical boards. This is what you most often see demonstrated in our posts, and our most popular service.

Virtual visual notes are created, well, virtually. Our artist joins remotely on the platform your meeting is taking place on and can either screen share in real-time, or you can have a grand reveal at the end. This service is great for engaging attendees during virtual and hybrid meetings!

Have questions? We have answers! Let us know in the comments or send us a DM.

Event activations are perfect for your next event, whether it’s a conference, trade show, or feedback session.

How do these interactive event add-ons work?

1. Set up: You provide an “answer station” in a high-traffic area where attendees see a question or prompt on our artist board that they answer on cards or post-its

2. We draw: The artist draws the answers one-by-one over the course of the event. When the vent is over, your activation board is complete

3. We share the results: Attendees can circle back after answering to see the finished product, or you can email them the visual notes post-event with the digital files we provide

Meet Daniella, one of Ink Factory’s project managers!

If you’ve worked with us on a project in the last year and a half, you might’ve been lucky enough to have Daniella as your project manager.

From her attention to detail to her genuine care for what’s on her plate, with Daniella on your team, your experience with us is bound to be a home run.

Since joining our team, Daniella has brought a breath of fresh air with her cool fashion and even cooler taste in music. In her free time, you can find her at concerts, fangirling over boy band BTS, or dancing (sometimes all three at once).

Thanks for being a part of the team, Daniella! We appreciate you.
