CLIENT REVIEWS | SWIVEL CREATIVE

I have worked with a number of graphic facilitators, and Rachel Dight is by far the
best I have seen! She is able to 'hear' the conversation, identify the most salient points
and cleverly represent them in a way that builds meaning for those who see her work.
She is super easy to work with and is very flexible to accommodate changing needs.
I would strongly recommend her for both in-workshop conversations and also
helping to present complex concepts in a simple, visual and compelling way.

Rachel Dight is a graphic facilitator with X Factor! She captures the very essence of
our ATC Conferences and creates beautiful infographics that our delegates love. The speakers at our conferences also all want copies of her pictures. Rachel makes you look good and adds to your brand. All this and she is really easy to work with and works hard to get you great results. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

We recently reached out to Rachel at Swivel Creative to graphically record our national training conference, comprising a mix of 800 person plenary sessions, 100 person seminars
and 20 person workshops across a packed two days. It was a challenging timetable, with an enormous amount of content covering broad subject matter, and Rachel totally crushed it! Rachel's graphic recording was a highlight of our conference and completely brought the stage and content to life. I am scared to think what our conference would have been without her work. Not only did Rachel provide a high-quality creative service, she was brilliant to work with. Rachel needed very little instruction to nail the brief and was very considerate and cooperative. What Rachel does is magic, and we can't recommend her highly enough!

It is extremely rare to find someone with what Rachel has: a combination of skills performed at an incredibly high level, including graphic facilitation, graphic design and strategic visualisation, together with a 'get stuff done' attitude and business smarts. BUT, the most important reason why I have continued to work with Rachel over a number of years is
the experience of working with her. It's always a joy. We have worked together on some
of the largest transformation programs across Australia, which always demand a deep understanding of the technical together with the ability to engage and enable collaboration, solve complex problems and accelerate outcomes. I would highly recommend working
with Rachel Dight.

What an amazing experience I had working with Rachel at our two-day international conference for the Wharton Global Forum. Rachel was incredibly helpful from the get-go, taking the time to understand the brief and find solutions that suited our client and audience. Across the two event days, Rachel exceeded expectations with her graphic recording work, scribing multiple panel discussions and keynote presentations, resulting in ten incredible artworks. These creations became a talking point throughout the conference and were displayed around the venue for guests to absorb. Our client couldn’t have been happier – so thank you Swivel Creative – we will definitely be using you again!

Rachel Dight’s work as a graphic facilitator at our leadership summit was simply phenomenal. She captured the essence of our two days of presentations and lively discussions in a remarkably insightful and engaging way. It was fascinating for our participants and speakers to see her at work. It helped them focus on the key points
of the sessions and supported active listening. Feedback from attendees was exceptional, and we are particularly looking forward to sharing her vision boards across our organisation. Rachel is a great artist and great to work with; we would
be delighted to work with her and Swivel Creative again at our future events.

Rachel Dight's graphic recording contributions are not only insightful, they are beautiful. She is able to capture the essence of keynote presentations and workshops succinctly, and because she makes the visuals available so quickly after the event, delegates find them invaluable when they report back to colleagues. Rachel is friendly, approachable, flexible and accommodating. Nothing seems to phase her. You know you're on a winner when the presenters themselves take selfies in front of Rachel's visuals ;)

"Rachel, thank you for your brilliant graphic facilitation at the launch of the Action on Obesity Collective. It was hugely impressive! You captured superbly not only the content of the discussion, but also the imaginations of the audience. The launch was seen as a watershed moment by participants spanning all sectors of society, from academics to the private sector. Your work has become an important part of the history of this significant new movement
and now appears in our archive of internal communications. Thank you!"

Rachel Dight was a fantastic addition to our Athlete Wellbeing Summit. The graphic facilitation added a creative element to our event, and provided great summaries after
each of our sessions. With many of our presenters without PowerPoint presentations, Rachel’s creative skills really drew attention to some of the key take outs. All of our delegates provided very positive feedback of the graphics, and we will certainly look
to use Rachel’s services again in the near future. I highly recommend using her!

DCJ worked with Rachel on the Aboriginal Child Safety & Wellbeing Reform Forum. She provided live visual/digital scribing for the event. The forum content was quite heavy yet marked incredible importance for our department and people/families in NSW. In the leadup and on the day, Rachel was professional, respectful, collaborative, efficient, and creative. She was able to capture the essence of the discussions and presentations in a clear and concise way. The scribing was an asset to the event, and it helped to keep the participants engaged,
and informed. I would highly recommend Rachel for any event that requires live scribing.

Rachel was a pleasure to work with at our recent corporate client event. The live illustrations added something genuinely different to the day and quickly became a talking point with guests, with many commenting on how engaging they were. Rachel has a real ability to listen to complex discussions and translate them into clear, thoughtful visuals in the moment. The illustrations captured the key themes of the sessions and have given us great content we can continue to use in our post-event communications. She was easy to work with throughout the process, professional, and collaborative. I would happily work with Rachel again on future events and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.

We engaged Rachel for live scribing of our annual NSW leadership forum. Rachel was wonderful to work with, in preparation to our forum she was very flexible and creative to suggest best ways to scribe for a variety of different session styles, incl. keynote scribing, workshop and panel session scribing, as well as 2 fast-paced breakout sessions with a tricky set-up. Our participants loved the beautifully scribed murals, being able to engage with Rachel & the discussion outputs throughout the day and that we're able to use the digital outputs across our teams. I can only highly recommend Rachel for any event, her talent, professionalism and passion truly shine through from start to finish! Certainly, raised the energy throughout the day and contributed to a successful day. Thank you!

Rachel’s graphic recording really contributed to our recent online event, not simply in terms of a valuable visual output that captured key messages from presenters and sessions, but also by providing a live visual experience enjoyed by our audience. Rachel’s artwork and visual assets have become a valuable part of the messaging and visual identity of Student Voice Australia. Rachel is professional, efficient and a pleasure to communicate with.
Thank you, Rachel!

We were thrilled to have Swivel Creative back at our annual conference to visually scribe the insights of our 3 keynote speakers. Rachel did an outstanding job of turning their key messages into engaging and stunning visual recordings. Our delegates loved them, and
the speakers were very impressed! Rachel’s creativity and professionalism made the process easy and enjoyable. I highly recommend Swivel Creative for any event.

Rachel sketched my keynote at a recent conference and the finished product was amazing! Everyone loved seeing her sketch the keynote in real time. I would highly recommend Rachel to help bring a presentation to life and give attendees something tangible to walk away with.

Rachel was an amazing addition to our Women in Leadership event. Her ability to visually capture the main themes of the guest speakers was excellent, and the way she brought it
to life on canvas outstanding. Participants were thrilled to be able to see an overview of
each activity and a fantastic way to be able to send out a record of the day to our
participants. Rachel was very easy to work with, approachable, professional and
interested in ensuring she captured the intent of the day. Totally recommend Rachel
and using a digital or visual scribe for your event!

Rachel has an amazing knack for synthesising all the gold in conversations and visually representing it in a beautiful and captivating way. I was blown away by how quickly
she captured the core themes emerging and highlighted their intent with key words
and visuals. Her graphic recording artwork is outstanding. She is a huge talent.
Fun to work with. Highly recommend.

Working with Rachel was seamless and her product is of the highest calibre. From
creating a skeleton concept of what we were seeking to achieve for an online workshop through to scribing the day, Rachel's visual storytelling abilities helped us draw out and identify the key strategic themes from large, facilitated group discussions. Thank you
for your amazing work, we look forward to working with you again!

Our organisation was developing a new strategy and there was a need to engage our people to bring them along on the journey and co-design the detail. We engaged Rachel
to graphically record a series of workshops across our business units. Rachel took the
time to understand our needs and tailored her approach to each session. The visuals unfolding throughout the workshops helped staff imagine and discuss the future state, encouraged deeper conversations and brought our strategy to life in an exciting and engaging way. The resulting visual boards were embraced by leadership as something created together and helped build a shared ownership of where we are headed. The illustrations are now being developed into communication assets to support strategy activation across the organisation. Rachel is simply great to work with.

I was simply astounded at Rachel Dight's ability to visually capture the richness and
detail of a deep and fulfilling conversation with 11 strong personalities firing off
comments and thoughts over two days. Whilst the value of Rachel's graphic recording
was evident within the first few minutes of her capturing a conversation, the real value
became evident when I was able to use the visuals to easily communicate to others the
outcomes of the workshop. Rachel was flexible, able to work quickly and efficiently,
and delivered the final visuals the following day. Highly recommended for anyone
looking to capture an entire conversation at a glance.

I recently engaged Rachel’s services to visually scribe a customer session we were hosting. All I can say is Wow! We had a full agenda with several sessions that we asked Rachel to scribe both digitally and by hand, the end result was fantastic! This really helped to provide a visual representation of the days agenda and the feedback from our customer and our internal team has been extremely positive. Rachel’s ability to capture key strategic themes throughout the day and scribe this in such a beautiful way was a delight to see. I found
Rachel to be incredibly professional, accommodating and responded to my questions promptly. Would definitely recommend Rachel and her amazing talents, and we will
absolutely be engaging Rachel for future events.

I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Rachel Dight, after nearly a decade of
experiencing her work and working alongside her on a variety of projects. Rachel is a highly experienced creative professional who backs up a serious skill set with a strong work ethic and a super collaborative and client-focused mindset. In her live-scribing, Rachel is a fantastic listener and is able to play back what she hears visually in a way that is engaging, insightful and beautiful. In her graphic design she's able to take a complex idea and help communicate it in a way that is simple and clear. There are many great scribes around these days, Rachel is still one of the best!

Rach is one of the most professional, talented and prolific graphic recorders I've worked with. We've delivered several projects of large and small size together over the last seven years. Rach is wonderful to spend time with and simply an excellent scribe. Five stars!

We recently worked with Rachel on a large client conference which was also the launch of their new purpose and brand strategy direction, so capturing the essence of the new brand was essential – and capture it she did! She took the time to understand the brief fully, and synthesised the event discussions live on the day into a stunning 6m long visual mural.
The artwork she created was a bold, bright and logical representation of the content and energy that was in room. Rachel’s professionalism and creativity made the whole process incredibly easy. The client was absolutely thrilled with the end result (as were we!) and
we wouldn't hesitate to use Swivel Creative’s services again for future events.

We engaged Swivel to live scribe a set of focus groups with high school students on their experiences of education. The live scribing was very effective in promoting engagement among students who may otherwise have been reluctant to share their experiences.
The final illustrations are a beautiful and illuminating representation of the focus
group discussions. Rachel was highly professional and very easy to work with.

Huge thank you to Rachel for her great graphic facilitation work at our NSW Health Youth Consultation Forum. This was a day where young people worked in small groups across
a number of different topics to provide their feedback on new youth health policies.
Rachel captured this in such a stunning way that we will be able to use the visuals in policies and presentations moving forwards. It was great to utilise Swivel as an engagement tool so
young people could see their discussions coming to life, and feedback from young people, facilitators and others who have seen the artwork from the day has been overwhelmingly positive. I can't recommend Swivel enough. Their designs are fun, colourful, succinct
and a great visual way to represent the day. Thank you Rachel and team! :)

Our organisation worked with Rachel and Swivel Creative to provide graphic facilitation of
our strategic planning day. Her support and advice before, during and after the event was invaluable. Staff were transfixed as she made their thoughts come to life across the day on
the graphic boards. The resulting roadmap is not a mish-mosh of thought bubbles. It very carefully captures and integrates the key points into a cohesive visual roadmap, resulting from an entire day’s discussion across 35 people. The thought and care Rachel put into capturing and synthesising the salient points and themes is a rare skill indeed. The final
5.5m x 1.5m roadmap mural now hangs in our head office and has become an engaging communications, referencing and planning tool. I highly recommend Rachel for similar work.

Rachel from Swivel Creative is a talented visual scribe with a gentle demeanor and great collaborative spirit. I had the pleasure to have Rachel working on a project that involved academics and community members. The consensus from all involved was that Rachel is
a skilled artist who is able to interpret complex and nuanced conversations with respect and compassion. I absolutely recommend Swivel Creative!

I highly recommend bringing Rachel into team sessions and larger events where you want vision, strategy and ideas to come to life through visual storytelling. Some of us remember words, some of us remember visuals — the most effective communication helps us remember both.

As a keynote speaker and workshop facilitator I am always intrigued as to what people
that attend take away from my presentations. Recently, while presenting in the Illawarra Shoalhaven region of New South Wales I was left to wonder no longer. My presentations were visually scribed by Rachel Dight from Swivel Creative. Rachel is a graphic recorder, visual comms and graphic facilitator and is an amazingly talented person. Rachel
produced magnificent records of my presentations capturing the key and intricate messaging of my presentations in visually impactful pieces of art that will provide a lasting record of my visit as well as an ongoing reference for the communities. Rachel's work left
me quite emotional but reassured that my messaging was on point. I highly recommend Rachel and encourage anyone to engage her talents.

We benefited from Rachel’s skills during our recent Grosvenor Place Management Planning Workshop. Her skills at graphically recording the outcomes of that workshop also provided a fantastic visual record of the day's discussions. My team has revisited these slides frequently, and they provide a constant and appealing reminder of the day's  proceedings. I can strongly recommend Rachel Dight's services as a Visual Facilitator.

We contacted Rachel to scribe our UNSW Open Day event and create an artwork based around the conversations that were had on the day between academics and prospective students. Rachel was great to work with and she understood the brief completely, aligning the artwork with our Faculty's messaging and positioning. She absolutely nailed the final artwork, it was even more than I had hoped for and was a hit with our academics! We will be sharing the digital versions on our socials, thanks Rachel for adding so much to our event :)

I was presenting a session on Deploying Google Apps at an AIS ICT Leadership Conference, and was thrilled when I saw Rachel walk in the room with a whiteboard! Rachel created a fabulous representation of what I was saying, and easy for someone who wasn’t present
to gain comprehension of my presentation. I have no idea how Rachel does this. She needs to listen intently to subject matter that is not within the realm of her normal life and come up with creative ways of representing these ideas. It’s no mean feat! If you’re looking for
a great graphic facilitator to attend your conference and create lasting artefacts of a presenter’s words, then take a look at Rachel Dight’s work. I’m sure you
will agree that she is one very talented lady.

We engaged Rachel as a visual scribe for a complex project retrospective, and she was
an absolute pleasure to work with. She captured the session with empathy, accuracy
and real insight, uncovering opportunities and transforming challenging feedback
into clear, constructive visuals that brought the themes to life. The final visuals
were outstanding: contemporary, engaging and immediately useful for sharing
with executives and stakeholders. Rachel is a talented collaborator who elevates
the impact of any workshop. I couldn't recommend her more highly.

We were looking for a creative and different approach to bring our data and employee
voice to life. Rachel’s artistic, creative and strategic understanding of what was needed
was exactly what we were looking for during our live workshops. Rachel brought our material to life with engaging, colourful and visually appealing artwork that we were
able to share across the organisation in different ways. Rachel was a pleasure to work
with and will provide a different edge to your data.

Rachel was incredible! Very organised, prepared (while innovative and flexible), and the quality of the mural was outstanding. It will be a key artefact of our G&PS partner offsite,
that included keynotes, panel discussions and workshops, and it will be a memory to look back on. With 75 participants over 2 days, many commented on the creativity of Rachel's work, not to mention it was over 12m on the wall! Thank you Rachel, just amazing.

Rachel is brilliant at her core skills of graphic facilitation, illustration and graphic design. Over the past 13 years I have been privileged to work with Rachel on multiple projects
and occasions, including organisational transformations, IT implementation workshops, future-state visioning and ideation sessions. Working with groups, large and small, complex and simple, public and private. On every engagement Rachel brings a good-humoured, relentless search for quality. One of Rachel’s gifts is to listen to a group of people who are talking towards a solution and turn the complex words and ramblings of smart people into engaging, meaningful visuals and models in real time. I have seen people who thought
they were at odds with one another view Rachel’s live graphic facilitation and exclaim, “Ahhhh, so that’s what you mean!” Rachel is one of the hardest working individuals I know, and I feel privileged every time we get to work together. If you're looking to communicate complex ideas in simple and engaging ways, contact Rachel Dight at Swivel Creative.

Rachel has the rare talent of being able to listen, translate concepts into visuals and capturing them on the spot, resulting in engaging pieces of art, highlighting the essence
of a conversation, meeting, workshop or full-day offsite. Having had the pleasure of working closely with Rachel, I highly recommend her as a person, as well as a professional, for her expert skills, creativity and communication skills. A joy to work with!

I recently contracted Rachel Dight to graphically facilitate the Australian Institute of
Management Board Strategy Day and...WOW...I’m glad I did. It made the day. Rachel is
simply fantastic! She gets it. She was able to translate the discussions around vision,
strategy and action plans into creative, visual and crucially, meaningful output. Instead
of ending the day with a stack of boring powerpoint slides or flipchart paper that would
be consigned to the bin, we ended with visually stunning illustrations of our discussions.
This output gave life and meaning to our discussions, and has become the reference material in the development of AIM’s future strategy. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Rachel and Swivel Creative. Throw away the flipchart. Get creative. It works!

Rachel Dight has been a creative force in the collaborative event space for many years as
a graphic designer, facilitator, artist and teacher. She has consistently delivered high calibre work in her relationship with PwC's The Difference on events for private sector (banks,
telcos etc) and Government whether designing and theming long term engagements,
output documents, strategic visualisation or live graphic facilitation. She has influenced
and supported the development of those who work with her and we are always so excited
to have her back on every new job! Rachel is an incredible artist and a lovely human!

Rachel supported our team at Deloitte with the facilitation of a program pilot earlier this month. I can genuinely say that we couldn’t have had a better graphic facilitator than her for this event. Leading up to the pilot, Rachel was incredibly patient, professional and helpful, and she went above and beyond for us. She is certainly not the average service provider! At the event, she demonstrated a remarkable level of flexibility and creativity which truly made a difference to us and the participants. I can only recommend her
and hope to be able to work with her again soon.

Working with Swivel Creative was an inspiring and transformative experience. Their custom visual storyboard on Aboriginal cultural heritage was not just a tool for engagement, but
a true bridge to understanding. The way they crafted the narrative was both culturally informed and incredibly engaging. It's evident they deeply value and respect Aboriginal cultural heritage and the insights provided from my team. This storyboard has become
an invaluable asset in our efforts to connect authentically with Aboriginal communities
and tell our story to Aboriginal people and communities. Kudos to Swivel Creative for
their exceptional work!

Rachel Dight is one of the best creative directors and hands-on designers I have worked
with in my many years as Area Marketing Manager. In my marketing role at British
Airways I contracted Rachel to design our online and offline B2C and B2B marketing communications. She delivered on time, on budget and consistently excelled in her creative delivery. Rachel invariably surprised and delighted us at BA and we appreciated her expertise and flair greatly. Rachel is great to work with and interprets the brief swiftly and accurately. I highly recommend her work and creative integrity to any organisation.

​Rachel was wonderful to work with and incredibly flexible. She quickly understood what we were trying to achieve, developed a strong understanding of our business environment and constraints, and was extremely accommodating of our tight timelines. Her creativity was exceptional in developing resources for our Leadership Framework that felt fresh, engaging and unlike anything TAFE NSW had produced before. Rachel created a suite of visual communication assets, including an explainer video, illustrated handbook, conversation guide and leadership pathway journey, helping us bring our message to life in a clear and compelling way. The resources are now embedded across our intranet, learning platforms and leadership programs, helping us communicate ideas more effectively and engage audiences from the outset. Rachel helped us step beyond the corporate norm to create something distinctive, engaging and memorable. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive and the resources have increased engagement and uptake across the organisation.
We highly recommend Rachel and would welcome the opportunity to work with her again.

I highly recommend Rachel Dight's graphic facilitation and design services as part of an organisational communication plan. Rachel is brilliant at capturing the essence of key strategic messages and translating business messages through animation, visuals and design for business audiences. Rachel has proven to be highly flexible to meet needs for a range of stakeholders and is a true delight to work with. Rachel brings a wonderful element of diversity to meetings and teams.

Rachel recently did some visual design (in the style of visual note taking) in preparation for the launch of our new innovation hub at AstraZeneca. She was highly professional and a delight to work with and the results were outstanding and in fact it was the main thing everyone commented on at the launch! We can't wait to work with her more and would recommend her to anyone looking to add life and impact to their communications.

We engaged Rachel to create a visual communication piece to tell the story of the City of
Parramatta’s Smart City initiatives, achievements and future vision. Rachel was able to
synthesise complex information, provided both verbally and in writing, and transform it into
a coherent, engaging and visually compelling narrative. She quickly grasped what we were trying to communicate and created a stunning visual that truly encapsulated what Smart
City means in Parramatta. Rachel was a delight to work with, professional, collaborative
and flexible throughout the process. We would not hesitate to work with her again.

Swivel Creative developed a complete visual identity for my business - a superb logo and other branding elements, including a kit of beautiful typographical styles and a gorgeous colour palette to use in developing future graphical assets. Having such a refined visual identity for my business has been crucial in helping me launch and get things heading rapidly in the direction I had envisaged. I thoroughly recommend Rachel and Swivel to anyone looking for high level design services.

Rachel Dight has provided a wide range of high quality creative services to us over many years. Rachel is highly creative and able to think outside the box. Her trademark is her ability to constantly deliver material that is always unique and always hits the mark. Rachel's creativity is matched by her commercial ability, meaning she is able to translate
a brief into something practical and appealing, delivering on time and on budget. I have absolutely no hesitation recommending Rachel to any organisation, large or small,
who requires exceptional visual design work.

Rachel has a fantastic ability to take a concept from inception through execution and delivery, both as part of a team or when delivering independently. Combine this with her ability to deliver compelling, meaningful graphics in a number of mediums, and the fact that she's just a pleasure to work with, and you can't go wrong! I would recommend Rachel Dight and Swivel Creative without hesitation.

The incredible art that Rachel and her team created at our staff retreat one year ago
hangs on our office walls and continues to inspire and motivate us each and every day. Inviting Swivel to participate in key milestones for your company is a true culture-
building investment in your team. Swivel artists are skilful, playful and professional. Cannot recommend them highly enough.

Our organisation worked with Rachel and Swivel Creative to provide graphic facilitation for our strategic planning day. Her support and advice before, during and after the event was invaluable. Staff were transfixed as she made their thoughts come to life across
the day on the graphic boards. The resulting roadmap mural is not a mish-mosh of thought bubbles, but carefully captures and integrates the key points from an entire day's discussion into a cohesive visual roadmap. The thought and care Rachel put into capturing and synthesising the salient points and themes is a rare skill indeed. The final 5.5m x 1.5m mural now hangs in our head office and has become an engaging communications, referencing and planning tool. I highly recommend Rachel for similar work.

Rachel, I want to say a big thank you on behalf of CiEvents and our client. Your work is outstanding! It was a very content heavy conference yet you were always smiling, kept up
with the pace and made it look so easy. Everyone was very impressed with your work, and
your visuals have given our event longevity. You are a true professional: reliable, friendly and easy to work with, which makes our lives as producers a lot easier! We like working with people we can count on and I very much look forward to working with you again. Until next time!

We contacted Rachel to provide graphic recording for a conference we held for approximately 70 staff coming together for the first time in three years. It was an absolute pleasure to work with Rachel, and we are thrilled with the outcome of both the visual and digital recordings. Rachel scribed some sessions digitally for the audience to see on screen, and these continue to support our internal communications. Other sessions were captured on large boards, which are now displayed in our office as a reminder of the discussions, learnings and outcomes. We will definitely use Rachel's services again.

Rachel's work really enhanced our event and took our conference presentations to a new level. It also gave us opportunities to publicise our content far beyond the event time
limits. I definitely recommend getting her along to your next event. She was easy to
work with and produced high quality work.

Great to work with Rachel as she created a live visual of my clients FY 24 objectives during their annual conference. They're so happy with the masterpiece, it's going up
in their office. Plus she created 7 great book covers based on a team building activity. So much fun and so different.
