Sketchnote4Everybody - #Sketchnote4E

1. Introduction: Welcome toe sketch. Not for everybody. My name is Model Roselli. I miss Kiss Notre and from Milan, Italy, and I'm ekes Laundry Peaks and I'm a visual pirate and disease. A crash course in schedule. When I started in 2012 higher the blast and I started drawing like crazy without even knowing what really sketch. Not was it took a while to understand that what is gets on and what is not in a natural schedule per in is not just drawing. It is not toe embellish our our notes. It's, uh, a methodology. It's a methodology that engaged the visual system in our brain. As you can see here, the visual system engaged the 50% off the cortex and 70% of their new rooms. Things is not invented. You can google it. You can find these this figure by yourself while you sketch. Not you will get a better retention off the concept off the meaning off. The idea you're you're drawing sketching up is also a trigger, and it's faster their normal notes. A soon as you see, they sketch not old ideas, all the meaning, the concept you have drone. They will come back easily and quickly in your in your mind. No, I have free main goal for this class. The 1st 1 is to give you the Benny Basic knowledge about schedule. The second is to create with you we will draw a longer, uh, some scheduled. And at the end of the off the class, the final result will be a beautiful cheat sheet schedule cheat sheet. That will be your first, your first castle. Third, to inspire you to keep going. If you are new to scarce, not I think this could be a very good class for you. If you are an experienced gets Notre, I'll be so hard, nerd tohave you in reviewing glass? Okay. Okay. Okay, Don. And from time to time, I will jump in tow, give to spice up the less some off that very serious and focused. It's Notre and yeah, come on, it will be fun. See you in class. 2. Structure and Flow: Welcome back in the lead, we lose some worker. The topical off this lesson is structure inflow Structural floor are some of the fab rates subject off conversation among sketch note because there is a wall, world and world universe. I told you, if you're gonna pay attention, this guy is so serious. Is drug you in East Los off? He's about structuring flow These mainly because every sketch not has a limit. It can be the piece of paper you're drawing on or the size of your of your wife of your bada no matter what, you must deal with it. And that now is where structure and flow comfortably. Um, when an experience case Notre see a white piece of paper e he can foresee how toe combine all the drawings, all the writing, Everything he can see At the first glance, this car folding off is a scheduled international. The structure is the positioning. Okay, the juiced oppose the juxtaposition ing off your writings illustration of yourself to it and all the old elements off the scheduled and the flow is the path that the readings has, along with all the elements in the infrastructure. OK, normally the's ease the usual structure. We will see every their books, magazine, Onda slides, empower point and whatever from top to bottom and from left to right for for reading, scanning and the I'm anticipating the structure off the schedule we're going to do. And this is it. And I suggest that you to use a piece of paper, a four or letter size in port right orientation and divide in 55 areas. The 1st 1 in a small area at the top for the title, then three blocks of information. Because we are talking about trimming subject in the third class and then another is more part for the for the food. Don't worry. You will put your senior, sir, and some notes for for for a wrap up. But we want our sketch not toe be interesting. Mysterious to spice up our castle toe. Give it some read. Um, so I would like to suggest a trick off mine I love to use. And they called t and I I anti. What does it mean? It means tea and I is topic, and that is the main subject. I'm skits. Nothing about It can be something I'm listening from a broadcaster or a video or the title of the chapter or the book I'm reading or my main I e. My main idea, that is that the general description off the charts subject then notes the notes are what I'm capturing. Okay, What? The letter is saying what they say, or I see in a video as he's want one. Okay, And then the ideas, the ideas is what spark from what you're capturing. Okay, The epiphany. The spark of genius. The ideas. OK, The trick here is to start with the first element of with the first block drawing writing the topic, then note, then ideas the next. For the next element, you start to draw topping notes idea, but in the reverse order from writer to left, as you can see here in the in the picture. So you have a very nice flow with the rhythm. You may think this is confusing, but I I ensure you when you will go back and to see your sketch, not at the first glance. The fifth thing is that you need to put a bit of a station on. You need to focus to understand what's going on? Why this? OK, maybe at the beginning is not really clear. And you you need to read it to understand. But in the moment you understand how to flow works, you will have what they say They are hot moment. You obtain that the reader really focus on yours, Castle, and try to understand, OK. And a Z told you in the production. This is priceless because, uh, it's the Scots not triggers the attention. And after after a second is faster, everything you put there, just jump out and come back in your, uh, in your mind in a second. Uh, okay. This is the war lesson. And now the most disappointed for you. I'm I know. And I'm sorry for that part. Off these off this class, you need to draw the first block in your in your question. Are you kidding? You told nothing about sketch, Not a barter structure and floor, and that you want now we to draw something. Sure. Be patient. These will make sense and the end of the at the end of the class. So go in the project, that resources section of this class and that you will find the link to download these example and use it. You can copy it for this time. It's OK to copy the end. The creator The first information. Block off your of your schedule. Once done, do not forget to share with the with the glass.

He's always so excited about icon sender. I can second him. I concern microcosm. And the in a few trait you can summarize AWOL speech. A war concept, I hope. Way Show us something rather than just chatting. Okay, let me do it. The most simple use off of icons is in the inner released. Let we try this one on this to three. You can just add some cycles.

The first thing about the title of a schedule the title is the first thing that we and our look at and it must be Ah, harnessed is must be trustworthy. And the the title in discussing is not a a quick bite tool. Okay, you must think about your title and put the right one and thinking about the title in not just the topic and that you think in the moment he is them, right?
