Big Picture Storyboard

A series of visually rendered panels that focus on the user’s experience

Why it matters

It keeps the team honest about context: the product is one panel in the user’s day, not the whole strip. Seeing the moments before and after a feature is used often changes what the feature should be.

The numbers

6-8 panels — enough for a journey, few enough to force priorities
