Story Board Confusion. (1 Viewer)

[-X-]

Hi, im just confused a little with story boards. Do i show the UI of the program or the structure of UI.
For example:
This:

I think the first is correct, but wait for an expert.

Yeah that looks pretty good. It depends what sort of storyboard your doing, which affects the structure. For example there is hierachal and linear. Yours was a hieracal.
Which was like
Step 1
|
Step 2 - Step 3


But you can get linear which works like step 1 - step 2 - step 3

Well, for example questions 22 c i in HSC 2002 says to construct a story board, but im not sure what type they want? Heirarchial or the first one? etc...

NO DETAIL

the most detail u would have would be showing a button and a text for it

your aim is to show the flow in the screens, and it helps to show consistency, for example if u had a wizard screen showing the consistency of button layout...

for hierarchical storyboard wat i would of done is


like the firs tone would of been my main program then broken down into the other dialogs etc...

Ok so i can design the actual UI for all the different screens and show the flow?

ummm no details in the actualy boxes

just the core components of each screen

for example


a wizard dialog, your most important thing would be i'd say

the back and next buttons which should be linked to the next dialog of the wizard


for details of the actualy screens go into the "Screen Designs"

You're supposed to choose yourself. For that question I am guessing off the top of my head its the train one? Well if it is, then you'd obviously choose a linear storyboard as you wouldn't want the user to go directly to the thankyou page if they haven't bought a ticket as the possibility in a non-linear/dynamic story board.

For say a webpage, you'd use hierarchical or a non-linear/dynamic. The question did not specify because you had to chose.

savestheday, i knew that. But i was just confused with storyboard and screendesigns. I thought they were both the same thing (both storyboard). So i didn't know which to use.

so just to clarify here....sotryboards only involve the name of the screen. eg a box with "edit screen" is enough?
