Who this is for: Motion producers writing precise creative and educational briefs.
What to prepare
- Approved parent-child hierarchy
- Exact group and child labels
- Meaning of boundaries and any exceptions
Copyable creative brief
An authored planning example. Replace illustrative details with your approved product facts and assets.
Create a 30-second nested-diagram lesson using HIERARCHY. Establish the outermost PARENT_BOUNDARY and its label first. Keep that boundary visible while revealing child groups in the supplied order. Every child must appear inside or clearly connected to its actual parent. Do not animate a child through another group in a way that suggests it belongs there. Use CHILD_LABELS exactly and introduce one level of detail at a time. Preserve completed parent labels as context. If a detail view is necessary, retain a small overview showing its location in the whole. Distinguish containment from sequence: do not add arrows between siblings unless the approved model includes that relationship. Finish with a complete hierarchy overview and an explicit explanation of what the boundaries mean. Keep source or illustrative status visible where appropriate. Flag overlapping membership or cross-group relationships that cannot be represented honestly by simple nesting. Do not force the model into a neat tree when the supplied structure is different.
Make it your own
- HIERARCHY
- Provide the complete approved parent-child map.
- PARENT_BOUNDARY
- Define the outer group's meaning and geometry.
- CHILD_LABELS
- Supply exact names and their owners.
- REVEAL_ORDER
- Choose the educational sequence without changing membership.
Fill a simple containment lesson
An illustrative toolkit contains a planning group and a review group; planning contains notes and sketches. Show the toolkit boundary, then the two groups, then planning's children. The order of appearance explains levels; it does not claim that review happens after every planning action.
Adapt deeper structures
For several levels, use a stable overview plus one expanded branch at a time. Keep the breadcrumb or parent label explicit. If one item belongs to two groups, use a different relationship diagram or a clear cross-reference rather than duplicating it without explanation.
Correct broken ownership
If a child slides outside its parent while emphasized, retain a connector or keep it within the boundary. If viewers read siblings as a process, remove directional arrows and clarify the containment label. If the final overview is too dense, simplify nonessential detail while preserving the stated hierarchy.
Review checklist
- Parent boundaries persist during child reveals.
- Each label retains its correct owner.
- Containment is not confused with sequence.
- The final overview explains the whole hierarchy.
