The house checklist
- Explanatory or monitoring? (story vs dashboard)
- Audience, stakes, Big Idea sentence written down.
- Tension located — as an open question, never fear.
- Storyboard the arc, shaped to THIS audience (lead or build?); one eureka beat.
- Scene headings = takeaway titles — read alone they tell the story; never a question.
- Each figure chosen from its takeaway; a BAN where one number is the story.
- Grey everything, colour only the finding; words colour-tied to data.
- Eyes-drawn test per scene; declutter → right chart → emphasize.
- Accessibility: alt text, direct labels, no colour-only encoding.
- Standalone-readable (portal decks are read alone); exec-summary scene.
- Drills authored for predictable questions; glossary covers new terms.
- Twyman pass + reverse-storyboard audit + red-team verdicts in the deck.
