Get Onna My Cloud

Here are some recent illustrations done at a conference on the subject of The Cloud. You’re already using it and you’ll be using a lot more soon.
Deep Deep Down

Here’s a whiteboard drawing I quickly turned into an illustration at a recent conference. You can really run these things around fast with Photoshop.
BIG BAD BUDGET 2011

Consultancy firm Deloitte asked Scriberia to illustrate their response to the UK budget as it happened. Throughout the afternoon as the details poured in and Deloitte’s accountants read through all the small print the images we produced were then distributed in press releases throughout the country to illustrate certain aspects of the announcement and how [...]
Ageing Gracefully

Over the last few months we have been working with the Coventry and Warwickshire Partnership NHS Trust to provide an illustrated approach to their work in older people’s services. In particular, we’ve been looking at what happens when someone starts to display signs of dementia (in case you weren’t aware, these might include trouble sleeping, [...]
Don’t sweat the small stuff

It was an interesting challenge creating images for Face, the co-creation brand agency – http://www.facegroup.co.uk. We often have to conceptualise something that’s hard to nail as an image. It’s more challenging to make that a small image for a web page. I think I like working in miniature.
Nice One

Here are a few vignettes from a recent job I did for an energy company, via a consulting client. The number 1 had particular significance to their project and fortunately I also found it formed the basis of an adaptable, expressive little character that was very quick and easy to draw. I’ve been experimenting with [...]
Blue Man Group

Various illustrations Scriberia created that were used to describe particular business practices for a large technology company.
Scriberia are Good for Nothing

Last month Scriberia volunteered their time, together with a large diverse group of talented people, to see how much good we could do for nothing by helping out three awesome causes that needed a little bit of help. It was absolutely fantastic to see so many amazingly talented people busting their butts at the weekend [...]
Anty-heroes out to lunch

On the back of his remote scribing efforts (organised by our friends at Learning Times) the Smithsonian Institution recently asked Dan to create an info-packed trayliner. In case you were wondering, trayliners are the sheets of paper sometimes placed on trays in fast-food outlets, school canteens etc. This one prompts some pretty serious thinking about [...]
Museums Go Mobile

Last month we reported on our very enjoyable two-day session capturing the key learnings and insights from Museums and Mobiles in the Age of Social Media, the 2010 Museums and Handhelds Conference hosted by Tate Modern. We worked in the conference foyer, on huge windows overlooking Tate’s gigantic Turbine Hall. We found it to be [...]
Three Four..um

Here is a small sample of work Chris did for the Three mobile brand forum this year, hence the terrible title for this post. The job entailed creating a series of illustrations that could be used for signage, maps, badges and bags during the event. The lovely people at Wham design, who commissioned Chris, sent [...]
Night Shift

Chris from Scriberia was out scribing at a couple of evening events last week in some of the swankiest spots in london. The first was for the Reputations Online Awards at the Hospital club and he was tasked with capturing the award results as they were announced on the night. The second event was at [...]
IBM Summit at Start

Dan, Chris, James and Karolin Schnoor were lucky enough to scribe at IBM’s summit ‘Smarter Business for a Sustainable Future’ held at Lancaster House. There was an amazing list of speakers, including Prince Charles, and what we learned from them and the debate over the course of the event was fascinating. We worked on nine [...]
University Challenges

Another piece of Virtual Graphic Facilitation in association with Learning Times. More details to follow…
Conversation Changing… Cannes Lions 2010

After much build-up and a couple of heart-stopping late technical hitches, last week’s live digital scribe at the Cannes Lions Advertising Festival was judged a success. In 45 minutes, Richard Pinder of Publicis Worldwide and Paul Kemp-Robertson and Jess Greenwood of Contagious explored the ways that smart brands are igniting, owning, confronting and subverting the [...]
Jammy Dodgers

Chris and Dan, assisted by Freya Harrison whose map and signage really provided the event with its distinctive look and feel, completed a successful evening at the first ever Google Jam last week. The scribe session lasted about an hour and a half – kicked off by Tom Uglow and Bruce Daisley on the creative [...]
More Smithsonian Remote Scribing

This one was for a talk on the Yu’Pik Eskimos of Western Alaska, and all their amazingly decorated, symbolically laden objects. Like the Folkways recordings session before it, this piece has been worked on a fair bit after the hour’s session. Probably getting on for two and half in total. But it’s only really after [...]
Sounds interesting…

I’ve been developing an exciting relationship with Learning Times recently. I’ll be providing remote scribing at a number of their beautifully produced, intellectually stimulating online conferences, backed up by the rest of the Scriberia team. More to follow on this, but I thought I’d share this recently completed piece I produced for a talk by [...]
Avast!

7×16 ft Knowledge Wall/ Rich Picture illustrated over two days. We started the image by blocking in the basic image and then requested feedback from the clients as we went along to make sure the final image captured all of the key insights and messages that they were communicating over the event. The client was [...]
On The Road

Here is another Rich Picture we created for a company who were moving offices in the near future and wanted to communicate the benefits in the short and long term to their staff. We decided upon a very clear representation of this Journey to show the past, present and future in a way that everyone [...]
Live Illustration

Here’s a few images from a recent scribing session. I guess this is the opposite of a mind-mapping approach. This is trying to catch headlines and turn them into a series of single images. These were all done in a day at a workshop. Then they were given a splash of colour and the group [...]
