Vision Storyboard Or Narrative
Stories are a powerful delivery tool for information visualization, empathy, and engagement.
Why use this?
To place the user as the hero in a story
To help understand how our user can overcome key challenges to save the day
To efficiently tell a story
To quickly share out problem statements, user's journey, and solutions to stakeholders
What is this used for?
Storyboards are illustrations that present sequential scenes that represent a story.
How to storyboard
Drawing skills aren't necessary for creating storyboards.
Before working on the template, start thinking about the story and its character. Create a step-by-step outline of the story. Add call-outs and emoticons to represent any emotions from a character.
Then, use the template to translate each step into a storyboard frame. Illustrate each scene as best as you can.
Stories should have a clear outcome, any benefits of a solution, or depiction of the problem.
A second template option has been provided to help you build out the narrative of your vision if you find it easier to focus on key elements of the storyline rather than the visuals.

The Storyboard for User Experience template helps design seamless, user-friendly journeys. It maps out scenarios, actions, thoughts, and emotions to create a cohesive user experience.

These tools can help you explore more open-ended problems and have more productive discussions, ultimately leading to the most effective solutions.
Creative Brief Template
Works best for:
Design, Marketing, Desk Research
Even creative thinkers (or maybe especially creative thinkers) need clear guidelines to push their ideas in productive, usable directions. And a good creative lays down those guidelines, with information that includes target audience, goals, timeline, and budget, as well as the scope and specifications of the project itself. The foundation of any marketing or advertising campaign, a creative brief is the first step in building websites, videos, ads, banners, and much more. The brief is generally prepared before kicking off a project, and this template will make it easy.
