Somehow I missed the announcement for this livestream. Going to be more diligent in the future. I’ve fallen into duplicating my header with just different text, I want to up my game.

It was kind of spur of the moment, it wasn’t you!

Mike, I caught a portion of that livestream and it was fun! Did you say that you sketchnote the games while listening on the radio? Probably good to not have the visual distraction at the time!

Here's the kind of look I am aiming for tomorrow:

Wonderful. Interplay of font styles already adds so much value, it's something I am just not able to do.

I do this while watching the game and recording bits in the downtime between plays. American Football is unique in that there's a lot of time between plays and time for commercial breaks that allow me to catch up with something.

Tomorrow I'm challenging myself to do more imagery than text, so it should be fun to capture. I'm hoping for a win, but even if not, this helps drain my stress a little bit, oddly enough!

Ah yes, American Football has an amazing amount of downtime haha. But you have inspired me to try this while watching cricket next time. Maybe for the 3-hr game, but maybe also for the 5-day test matches!

It was a good idea to celebrate the World Sketchnote Day with a Live!

The connection wasn't super stable for me (probably my side) but I could still hear/see everything with a pause from time to time, and sweat for you when you started the curves around the Packers' "G" 😰😄

Thanks for being there, Lud! It felt right to do something live today. Hopefully the recording has a little better quality for you!
