This is a great presentation! It really helped me understand a few key elements of visual communications. Plus I got some really great drawing tips for illustrating the different types of ideas I need to convey. It starts a bit slow, so if you’re looking at it keep watching… it really picks up towards the middle.

Dave Gray also has a new book out on using games to train and reinforce. It’s an interesting read as well, though the topic didn’t resonate with me like this one. I’d buy a book dedicated to this topic if he wrote one!

Very good presentation. Has me thinking about visual alternatives (again).

Question: How do you visualize abstract thoughts like “honesty” or “philanthropic” or “deceitful?”

I look forward to more of these.

Thanks it was good.
– Was simple enough to understand
– Done it such away that you could retain the data
– Gave sufficient tools so one could do it themselves
– Gave a sense that what was presented would be
worth doing.
