See thinking unfold live

Whether projected across venue screens,
live-streamed into virtual and hybrid
events or illustrated on large-scale boards, live visuals help people connect ideas,
build shared meaning and stay in the conversation, wherever they are.

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. Our speakers all want copies of her visuals. 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.

Rachel provided graphic facilitation for our strategic planning day. Staff were transfixed as she made their thoughts come to life across the day on the graphic boards. The thought and care Rachel put into capturing and synthesising the salient points and themes is a rare skill indeed. The resulting 5.5m x 1.5m  mural carefully integrates the key points from
an entire day’s discussion into a cohesive visual roadmap that now hangs in our head office and has become an engaging communications, referencing and planning tool.

"Rachel visually captured our NSW Health Youth
Forum in such a stunning way that we will be using the images in policies and presentations moving forward. Young people could see their discussions come to life, and the the feedback from participants, facilitators and everyone who has seen the artwork has been overwhelmingly positive. I can't recommend Swivel enough.
The visuals are fun, colourful, succinct and
a great way to represent the day."

GRAPHIC FACILITATION IN SYDNEY & BEYOND

Make thinking visible

> explore the visual scribe gallery

Our graphic facilitation creates dynamic visual narratives that help groups think together, solve complex problems and spark new ideas at conferences and workshops.

By synthesising ideas and strategic thinking into live visual frameworks, graphic facilitation supports collaboration, encourages exploration and brings emerging themes into focus.

Whether illustrated on large-scale boards or digitally for projection, the evolving visual landscape brings clarity to complexity, connects ideas and builds shared insight.

Weaving together visual narratives

We take a whole-picture approach to graphic
facilitation, listening for ideas, relationships and
emerging themes as conversations unfold.

As visual communicators and live sense-makers,
we listen deeply and distil ideas into visual
narratives that help groups navigate complexity
and move forward with shared purpose.

More than documenting discussions, we use
visual thinking to encourage participation, deepen understanding and help groups make better decisions.

Connecting the
dots in real time

By creating a shared visual reference as conversations unfold, graphic facilitation helps people follow the discussion, connect ideas and stay actively engaged.

Mirroring conversations back in real time makes the
bigger picture visible, revealing emerging themes and where each contribution fits within the wider conversation.

This evolving visual record encourages participation
and creates the conditions for deeper insight, stronger alignment and more meaningful outcomes.
