Storyboard an explanation in three stages
See this course’s project requirements
An original 8–12-second three-stage SVG/CSS explanation with deliberate timing, readable title states, pause and reduced-motion alternatives, source and storyboard.
Keep your working files in your own notebook or software. Save a private description, checklist, and work link in My Proof.
What to include
- Create a three-stage explanatory storyboard and original SVG.
- Record actual duration/keyframe percentage times.
- Keep geometry, labels and static text consistent.
- Supply manual play/pause/static and reduced-motion rules.
- Deliver fresh HTML with actual source/browser test evidence and limits.
Review and revise
Use these criteria to check your work and choose what to improve.
- Meaning: stages serve a stated relationship.
- Geometry/timing: coordinates and percentages agree.
- Control: pause/static meaning work where actually tested.
- Evidence: fresh artifact and separate source/interaction claims.

The idea in everyday life
Choose one small explanation, not a decorative loop. Decide what changes at each stage and what the reader should understand after the sequence. The supplied original study builds a triangle from three noncollinear points. Its nine-second animation is a design duration, not a real construction speed claim.
Motion should show a relationship the static text also explains.
Storyboard an explanation in three stages — worked practice
Motion should show a relationship the static text also explains.
Original storyboard: 0–3 seconds establish point A; 3–6 introduce B; 6–8 introduce C; 8–9 connect the three edges. Static meaning: three distinct noncollinear points connected A–B, B–C, C–A form a triangle. If the points all lie on one line, the stated enclosed triangle does not result; the illustration and text must agree.
1. 1.1 Storyboard
Draw three storyboard panels naming which points/edges are visible. Write the final explanatory sentence before choosing animation effects.
You should see: Three panels have different informative states.
2. 1.2 Storyboard
Allocate a total of nine seconds among establishment, additions and final connection. Keep holds explicit so the viewer has reading time.
You should see: Timing totals nine seconds.
3. 1.3 Storyboard
Add a static sentence/list that preserves the same relationship without time-dependent viewing.
You should see: Static meaning is complete.
4. 1.4 Storyboard
Change the three points to collinear positions in a copied plan and identify why the original triangle explanation must change.
You should see: Collinearity changes the geometric claim.
What to finish
A three-stage storyboard and static explanatory text.
Watch for this
Adding movement that distracts without explaining any changed relationship.
How can I tell I understand it?
You can state what each stage teaches and preserve it without motion.
