Storyboarding
Storyboarding is a visual sequencing technique where a group maps out a process, plan, user experience, or future scenario across a series of panels, much like a comic strip. The group ends up with a visible narrative that exposes gaps, assumptions, and decision points that words alone tend to gloss over.
