Storyboard

Storyboard

Storyboards are comic book-style visualizations of a story that gives the whole picture of the environment in which users interact with a product.

Storyboards consist of 3 main components:

  • Scenarios: Scenarios informally describe a specific fragment of a user journey taken by a persona.
  • Visuals: visuals (sketches, photos, or illustrations) represent each step of a journey.
  • Captions: captions are text comments that accompany each visual and describe users' actions, environment, emotional state, device, and other important details. 

Storyboards provide additional context and put teams in users' shoes, giving them additional insight into what they can do to improve the user’s journey. Involving your entire team in the generation process can create a more accurate and realistic storyboard.[1]
