Texas Tobacco Summit

A recent mind map/graphic recording I did with UT Austin at their annual Texas Tobacco Summit. UT, in partnership with the Texas Department of Human Services and the federal government, is in the midst of a major initiative to prevent and curb smoking among various populations. I graphically recorded the presentation content of 6 coalitions in Texas and the participants loved it. It was a good way to display content outside of their PowerPoint presentations, and they hung this poster in the hallway for the duration of the conference so the messages were received, reinforced and discussed.

Idea Log - Tobacco Cessation

The UT Austin Tobacco Prevention Program holds a Texas Tobacco Summit every year and this year I got the opportunity to partner with them. I was to conduct a graphic recording at the conference during coalition presentations about efforts to prevent smoking, and UT also requested that I generate an 'Idea Log.' The log was included in participant handouts and is designed to give people a space to capture ideas, actions, resources, etc. I chose a cartoon panel set-up because I wanted to show (not tell) a mini-story about the real purpose of the conference.
