Who this is for: Motion producers planning timed educational and brand studies.
What to prepare
- Three named spaces and approved order
- Connection meanings and boundary rules
- Marker identity and overview map
Copyable creative brief
An authored planning example. Replace illustrative details with your approved product facts and assets.
Use Collect, Compare and Decide as an illustrative conceptual route. The spaces do not represent geography, measured distance or guaranteed process timing. Preserve the marker's identity and the route overview, then end with the entire connection map.

0–5s
Enter and orient
Show the complete route map, then establish Collect with the marker entering from the left.
On screen:Conceptual route: Collect → Compare → Decide
- 02
5–12s
Visit the middle waypoint
Move the same marker into Compare while the overview highlights its location.
On screen:Compare: inspect the gathered material.

12–21s
Cross the named boundary
Show the marker crossing into Decide with a stable direction cue and explicit boundary label.
On screen:From comparison to a selected direction.

Return to the full map
Hold all three spaces and their connections with the marker at Decide.

Make it your own
- SPACES
- Supply three stage names and short explanations.
- DIRECTION_MAP
- Define entry, travel and exit vectors for each view.
- BOUNDARY_MEANING
- Explain what changes when the marker crosses into the next space.
Define what the boundary means
The sample boundary changes the stage of a conceptual exercise; it is not a measured physical threshold. For another journey, supply the real relationship and any branching logic. A linear route should not conceal a process that can return, skip or branch.
Adapt the view changes
Use matched marker positions and consistent left-to-right travel across cuts, or show any turn explicitly. A portrait adaptation can use top-to-bottom travel if every shot follows the revised direction map. For a restrained version, keep the overview fixed and highlight stages instead of moving the camera.
Review the final orientation
Ask whether a viewer can name the current space and trace the full route at any detail view. If not, enlarge the overview or strengthen the labels. Inspect paired frames at cuts for accidental reversal. The closing map should remain useful as a still reference.
Review checklist
- One recognizable marker persists through all spaces.
- Every crossing has a defined meaning.
- Direction changes are preserved or explained.
- The final map retains all waypoints and connections.
