Sketch Group

Sketch Group We use sketching to tell stories, solve problems, explain ideas, and capture conversations. We sketch stuff. We're pretty good at it!

For example:
* we create hand-drawn videos that make dry or complex information fun or easy to understand
* we live sketch your conference or event
* we capture your ideas and turn them into a powerful one-page sketch
* we run training sessions to teach you how to sketch like a pro

Bushfire seasons can be unpredictable, but taking the right steps to prepare is essential.

We’ve created this sketchnote, using key points from the Bush Fire Survival Plan by NSW Rural Fire Service to help raise awareness about how you can plan, prepare, and act. Whether it’s knowing your bushfire risk, creating a survival plan, or preparing your property, every step matters.

Stay informed. Stay prepared. Stay safe.

We had the pleasure of graphic recording the 2024 Mental Health Symposium, hosted by South Western Sydney PHN.

These visual summaries not only highlight the key themes but also serve as a lasting resource to inspire action and collaboration beyond the event.

The team at Sketch Group had the privilege of visually documenting the insights shared during the first joint meeting of the Lake Eyre Basin Scientific Advisory Panel (SAP) and Community Advisory Committee (CAC) in Adelaide.

We graphic recorded key discussions about the basin’s threats, its immense significance, and the collective actions needed to care for this vital ecosystem.

A big thank you to those working to preserve this unique part of Australia. We're honoured to have translated these important conversations into visuals that will help inspire and drive action!

Resettling refugees is about more than just policies and programs—it’s about people and communities coming together to provide support, belonging, and opportunity.

When communities are involved in resettlement, the process becomes richer, more effective, and truly life-changing. From finding housing and employment to forming friendships and building trust, collective effort creates a stronger foundation for success.

In this sketchnote we combined key points from an article by the The Australian National University with a shout-out to our favourite community program that does an amazing job of helping refugees, Community Refugee Sponsorship Australia. And with input from (and beautifully created by) an illustrator who came to Australia as a refugee. Wonderful work Mursal!

Together with Brisbane South PHN, we crafted this explainer video to help raise awareness about their Recognise, Respond, Refer program, empowering GPs to support patients experiencing domestic and family violence. This initiative equips GPs with the tools to identify, support, and connect patients with the help they need.

Explainer videos are a powerful communication tool, transforming complex ideas into clear, engaging messages that resonate with your audience.

Change is never easy, but John Kotter's "Leading Change" offers a practical guide to making it happen.

We captured his eight-step framework in a sketchnote, making it easier to absorb and apply these timeless principles. From creating a sense of urgency to embedding change into your culture, Kotter’s insights are a masterclass in creating major change. Visual thinking can be a powerful way to inspire your team and communicate your vision for the future.

If you’re navigating change in your organisation and would love to know more about how you can leverage Sketch Group’s range of visual communication tools, please reach out to discuss. We’d love to help!

Have you ever heard of investing in mortgages as a strategy?

We hadn't either! Turns out it's a compelling option for savvy investors, but the concept can take a bit to get your head around.

That’s why Simple Property Loans engaged us to break down the concept in a way that's engaging and easy to grasp: through a sketch video.

The video explains how mortgage investing works, why it can be a smart choice, and, most importantly, how risks are mitigated.

Mortgage investing isn't just a new buzzword—it's an innovative product that could reshape how we think about investment portfolios. Our goal with this video was to make the idea accessible and intriguing, helping investors feel confident in exploring something new.

If you're curious about how a visual story can simplify complex financial concepts, this is a great example. Love to hear your thoughts!
