Inside the
swivel studio
Every project starts with listening.
Whether we're capturing conversations live at events or creating visual communications in the studio, we take time to understand the people, ideas and purpose behind the work. It's how we make ideas visible in ways that resonate.
Swivel Creative is a Sydney-based,
award-winning visual communication studio specialising in graphic recording, graphic facilitation, live visual scribing, graphic design and strategic illustration across live events, print and digital media.

Sparking imaginations
At Swivel Creative, we believe visuals have the power to create connection and inspire new thinking.
By making ideas visible, we help
people explore possibilities, uncover insights and see things differently.
That's why we feel fortunate to
work with people and organisations
tackling complex challenges and
doing meaningful work to
create positive change.
> Explore graphic recording
Our approach to visual communication has evolved through years of helping organisations communicate what matters, tell stories and engage audiences.
Working within the MG Taylor collaborative design environment
for many years has reinforced the
power of visual thinking to uncover patterns, explore complexity and
spark collective insight.
These influences continue to shape
our work at Swivel Creative. Whatever
the project, our purpose remains the same: to make ideas visible,
meaningful and memorable.

Behind swivel
Swivel Creative was founded in 2000 by Creative Director Rachel Dight, one of Australia's leading graphic recorders,
graphic facilitators and visual communicators.
With a background and qualifications in visual arts, design, advertising and multimedia, Rachel brings decades of creative and industry experience to every project. She combines an artist's eye, a designer's mindset and business insight
to bring ideas to life with creativity,
clarity and meaning.
Rachel has worked across the private,
public and not-for-profit sectors with
clients including Spotify, Qantas, Google, TEDx, GetUp!, Amazon, SBS, Telstra, Microsoft, UNSW, Allianz, Sydney Water, Commonwealth Bank, Westpac, NSW Government, Aboriginal Affairs NSW
and the Australian Institute of Sport.
Her experience spans communication campaigns, conferences, stakeholder engagement and organisational change.
"Rachel Dight is brilliant at her core
skills of graphic facilitation, graphic design and illustration. I've been privileged to work with Rachel on multiple organisational transformations and future-state visioning projects across groups large and small, complex and simple, public and private. On
every engagement Rachel brings a
good-humoured, relentless search for quality. One of Rachel’s gifts is listening
to people working towards a solution and turning complex ideas into engaging, meaningful visuals and models in real time. I have seen people who thought they were at odds with
one another view Rachel’s live
graphic facilitation and exclaim,
“Ahhhh, so that’s what you mean!”
