Make thinking visible

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
see relationships, 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.

"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."

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, showing how perspectives connect and where each contribution fits within the wider conversation.

What our clients say

THE IMPACT OF MAKING IDEAS  VISIBLE

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.

– Trevor Vas | ATC Events | Director

I have worked with a number of graphic facilitators, and Rachel 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. I would strongly recommend her for both in-workshop conversations and helping to present complex concepts in a simple, visual and compelling way.

– Lynette Nixon | PwC Australia | 
   Director Employee Experience

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.
