1.6 Prototyping the Design of a Product or Service Using
Wireframes & Storyboards (Templates)
A wireframe or storyboard will help you to design a prototype for the
brilliant tech product or service you have developed for the Think Tank
competition. This stage will help you to map out your solution - it could be
a website, an app or perhaps its a cool video in an app or website that
explains your product or service.
You can hand draw your solution or use a computer if you have access to
one. You decide!
Remember our judging criteria:
Usefulness/benefit to society 25 points
Creativity/innovation 25 points
Practicality/feasibility of the product / service 20 points
Use of media to tell the story 20 points
Completeness and clarity of the product / service description 10
points
Read on for examples of how you use a wireframe and / or storyboard!
Creating a Wireframe for a Website

A website wireframe, also known as a page schematic or screen
blueprint, is a visual guide that represents the skeletal framework of a
website and App.
To create a wireframe you can use a wireframe creation tool which is preloaded with assets that you can drag and drop into a document. Hand
drawn wireframes also look very cool!
This website LovelyCharts.com is a great resource for creating wireframes.
When you have finished creating the wireframe you can choose to
export it to a .jpg file from the dropdown menu at the top
file>export>.jpg.
Website Wireframe Example:
Creating a Wireframe for an App

An app wireframe, works in the same way as website wireframe. Known
as a screen schematic or screen blueprint, it is a visual guide that
represents the skeletal framework of an app.
App Wireframe Example (also created with LovelyCharts.com)
Creating a Video Storyboard for a Product / Service

A Video Storyboard is a panel or series of panels of rough sketches
outlining the scene sequence and major changes of action or plot in a
production to be shot on film or video.
Video storyboards are better hand drawn than creating it digitally.
Video Storyboard Example: Cadburys Gorilla Ad
