Story and narrative

Story telling is a great way of conveying a message that someone is likely to read, this is since there are proven intersections between neuroscience and biology, which means we can’t ignore a story. 

Stories are used in art, journalism, design, cultural traditions, and social behaviours. 

Using data to show a story

This is used in some infographics, such as ones where they show data that shows an important message. For instance, those infographics that have people shown in it and the people with cancer are a different colour from the rest of the people, this conveys a message and a story as it puts the amount into perspective. 

Story boarding

A story board is a visual representation of how your story will go. It is useful to show your team what your plan for the show to go. They are usually made up of lots of squares with illustrations or pictures representing each shot, with notes or script from each scene.

UX/UI narrative

Visual storytelling is a super important tool for a UX designer, as it helps the designer to establish an emotional connection with the audience. 

UX designers should set up the pages for how people’s eyes will see things and set the story through this. This will also help to foster a comfortable decision-making process. 

Story mapping

This consists of ordering user stories along two independent dimensions. ‘The map’ arranges user activities along the horizonal axis in order of priority. Down the vertical axis, it represents the implication or design.
