Come behind the scenes of my side hustle.
I'm making hand-sketched videos for organizations with big ideas.
I'm excited to take on collaborative video projects as my own side hustle, and within this course I'll be reflecting on what I learn from that process.
Here's a behind-the-scenes look at one of those projects:
Build and learn alongside other sketchnoters.
You're not the only sketchnoter who has heard the phrase "Those notes are so cool! How much would you charge to create something like that for me?"
You're not the only sketchnoter who wants to create prints, write books, and make videos.
You're not the only sketchnoter who wants to turn their creative skills into real dollars.
The purpose of this course is to gather together those sketchnoters who want to start earning an income from their creative work.
If that sounds exciting to you, I hope you'll join us.
