Graphic recording technical subjects - how does a live event illustrator deal with jargon and acronyms?

In the world of live event illustration, every single event is totally different (that’s why we love it!)

From creating visual notes for jargon-laden panel discussions, to navigating the more sensitive and controversial topics, we’ve seen it all.

We often get questions like ‘How are you going to keep up? You haven’t studied neuroscience/niche muscle groups/cat and dog GI tracts!’ 😅
(We really did do a conference about cat and dog GI tracts recently. It was very educational.)

But don’t worry, here at Illustrated Live we’ve got loads of tricks up our illustrator-sleeves to make sure you get the most out of your live event illustration, even for the most complicated, specialist topics.

How we handle illustrating the technical stuff at your event

Watch the video below for the full schpeel, but here’s an overview if reading is more your thing.
