Graphic recording is the art of illustrating salient points of a discussion in real-time to help people see what's being said and make connections. Graphic recording can be done in person, on large sheets of paper, or virtually. In a virtual setting, we can live-stream the illustration or share periodic updates on the image as your meeting unfolds. A discount is applied for work booked (with a signed contract) at least two months before the engagement.
Set-up and breakdown for in-person engagements can take 90 minutes or more, depending on the complexity of the event. As such, in-person engagements are only billed by half-day (where meeting runtime from start to finish is 3 hours or less) or full-day (any meeting over 3 hours).
* We offer a discount for in-person engagements booked at least two months in advance of the engagement date(s).
We charge by the hour with a $500 minimum. We can also join your in-person meeting remotely and bill an hourly rate rather than a day rate. Ask us how!
You send us a video recording of your meeting or conversation, and we create illustrations as if we were doing a live graphic recording. There is a one-hour minimum fee.
This add-on is available for virtual, asynchronous and in-person graphic recording on iPad.
Whether meeting in person, virtually, or in a hybrid format, we design and facilitate collaborative processes to foster creativity across systems.
We also charge for planning time.
We create illustrations to illustrate complex ideas as well as worksheets, workbooks, reports, flipbooks, and maps to enhance knowledge sharing. This is most often done in tandem with our role as graphic facilitators in retreats and conferences. Most illustration work will have some restrictions with regard to retail distribution and commercial purposes. Unlimited usage rights are subject to additional fees.
$1,000 minimum.
This page is provided for informational purposes. A project's final cost will vary depending on the planning time, scope, duration, and usage rights included in the final artwork. If a meeting or event is more than 45 minutes from where we are based and begins early, we may arrive the day before to set up. We charge 1/2 time for travel. We'd happily discuss your project and give you a more accurate quote.

Several of us are based in Philadelphia, PA, but we are increasingly national and international as a team. We do most in-person work across PA, NJ, NY, and Baltimore/Washington, D.C., but we also travel to other parts of the country and world.
We all speak English fluently, and we have several members of the team who are fluent and/or proficient in Spanish.
Please drop us a line if you are curious about having us come to your next gathering.
Yes! However, we typically stick to illustrations designed to help people plan or learn something new.
We also work with animators to get your illustrations moving!
If you have a project in mind and aren’t sure if it’s a fit, just drop us a line. We'll figure out if it is a fit or connect you to someone in our incredible network of artists who might be able to help.
OF COURSE.
We share our work publicly as often as we can.
There are hundreds of examples of our work on the Illustrating Progress Instagram page.
