What is this used for?
Stories are a powerful delivery tool for information visualization, empathy, and engagement.
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.

Understanding the balance between importance and difficulty is crucial for effective decision-making and progress. To aid in prioritization, a simple 2x2 matrix can map these factors on the x-axis and y-axis, respectively. This framework allows you to assess the trade-offs and tensions involved. The lower left quadrant represents quick wins, while the upper left quadrant consists of luxury items that may be costly with limited returns. The upper right quadrant contains strategic items that require significant investments for substantial results. Finally, the lower right quadrant houses the most valuable items, offering high impact at a lower cost.

Job Map Template

Ideal for UX researchers, job mapping is a staged process that gives you that POV by breaking the “jobs” down step by step, so you can ultimately offer something unique, useful, and different from your competitors. This template makes it easy to create a detailed, comprehensive job map.
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.
