FUSELIGHT
Let’s make the complicated, captivating.
We are masters at finding story in the complex. With a focus on climate science, health care, and collaborating on Indigenous-led projects, we use visual storytelling and interactive learning to deepen understanding. From graphic recording that enhances dialogue in meetings, to stunning explainer videos, to interactive infographics and augmented reality.
Graphic Recording & Facilitation
We customize graphic recording so it’s highly interactive for your audience, captures real-time feedback, and aligns seamlessly with your meeting’s facilitation. As specialists in Engagement Walls, we create interactive experiences that deepen understanding of your content. We’re also at the forefront of tech-driven engagement: we utilize a range of techniques, from AR and VR, to holograms, animations, and other digital tools to elevate graphic recording.
Explainer Videos
Our animations explain complex topics through memorable storytelling. Whether it’s a simple whiteboard video, a detailed explainer video, or more polished 2D graphics – we have an animation style for every project. We partner with our clients from initial concepting through script writing, storyboarding, animation, and editing.
Infographics
Infographics map out your concepts in a concise one-pager. Infographics can be made interactive with image or data pop ups. We’ve translated dense strategic plans into “visual executive summaries,” mapped out curriculums and training plans, designed journey maps of pathways through a system, and summarized research papers into visual reports.
Augmented Reality & Virtual Reality
Augmented reality (AR) is a tool for annotating graphic recordings with facts & data. People can also view large posters in a “virtual gallery walk,” or move through virtual environments using only their phones. Meetings can be hosted in virtual reality (VR) for people with or without a virtual reality headset. Graphic recording in VR is about creating an experience for people to move through and explore ideas in an immersive setting.
Virtual Meeting Design
With a background in stage management and event design, we are fluent in a range of virtual facilitation techniques. We’ve hosted small executive retreats, 300-person interactive sessions, and events with people experiencing hearing impairment.
