Sketching by hand gives you superpowers
Everything begins on a whiteboard or a napkin. All kind of creations, but especially a digital project is really kicked off when someone grabs a pen and starts sketching. One sketch leads to another and when the ideas start flowing on whiteboards or on paper, everyone in the project can see the vision and provide their unique perspective, regardless of if their perspective is business, design or technology. In this course we will focus on digital projects from conceptual perspective and how you can use hand drawn sketches to boost innovation. After the course you will know how to use hand drawn sketches to think ahead and capture the best ideas. You will be able to be a creator of more successful and innovative digital projects.

How does the course work?
The course requires no prior sketching skills to attend. You will impress yourself when you see yourself sketching in minutes during the first session. Between the sessions you will get tasks to do by yourself to get feedback and develop your skills rapidly. You will also get our popular sketching kit sent to you in good time before the course. This kit contains all you need for succeeding with your sketching.
The last couple of years, we in Whiteport have adapted our techniques for drawing on tablet devices supporting digital pens. As we realized, tablet sketching manages to keep the creative essence of traditional sketching with the capabilities of modern design software. The ability to sketch freely, instantly manupulate and then instantly share and collaborate with others have really opened new possibilities in digital design. If you have access to a tablet supporting a digital pen we strongly reccomend bringing it to the course and we will show you have to use it effectively with popular and free software.
The course is conducted in charming facilities with modern technolgy in central Stockholm. There is a limited number of places for attending the event on site. For remote viewers we have staff helpful in technical questions and replying any question you might have while sketching! Connecting remote will give you the whole live experience in a realistic way. The whole session is also recorded and you may always refer to the recordings in the future.
