DESIGN
Step 4 | Prototype
A refresher on Storyboarding…
Why storyboard?
Learn and advance your idea quickly
Make your idea tangible for the user to experience
Get your user’s feedback early on when changes are still easy to make
“Build to think”
Conceptual prototyping | It’s about sharing the concept – no artistic capability required!
Exercise: Prototype Design
Step 1: Storyboard - Teams develop a storyboard showing how a user experiences your solution/ idea. Then, create a feedback grid.
Step 2: “Kick the Tires” Rapid Feedback - One team member stays behind to host the incoming visitors and to share a 5 minute briefing on your concept. Visitors use post-its to give feedback on grid. Every time the music starts, it’s time to visit a new team.
Step 3: Refine & Design - Using feedback, refine storyboard and create a Design Brief that includes:
- Catchy name & Description
- Storyboard of user experience
- Why this idea is a winning play
- Experiment ideas to test assumptions
