1

Consider Scenarios

• Identify the sections of the scenario that warrant a storyboard.
• Consider how these sections relate to other scenarios already written.
• Group sections into a single storyboard where applicable.

2

Generate Screenshots

• Tools that work well for storyboards include Microsoft Visio and Microsoft PowerPoint. Capture the screens that are presented to the persona. Draw out a rough sketch of the user interface called for in the scenario. Collaborate with members of the development team to ensure the user interface is consistent with the user interface metaphor.
• Organize screenshots into a coherent presentation.
• Add short text or voice narrative that describes the user interactions.

Create Screen Flow Diagram

• Use boxes to represent screens, and arrows to indicate linkage.
• Upload the storyboard to the project portal and link the storyboard to the scenario work item.

Storyboards provide sufficient detail to guide and assist product design work.
