## Workflow
1. **Distill the Core Message:** Read the script or source material and identify the single most important message you need to communicate.
2. **Find the Narrative:** Structure the information into a simple story. What is the beginning (the problem), the middle (the solution), and the end (the outcome)?
3. **Develop a Visual Metaphor:** Brainstorm a central visual metaphor that can tie the whole story together (e.g., building a bridge, climbing a mountain).
4. **Storyboard:** Sketch out a sequence of key visual moments. For a presentation, this would be the key slides. For a video, the key scenes.
5. **Refine the Visuals:** Develop the sketches into polished illustrations or designs, ensuring a consistent style.
