Planning with AI: outlines and storyboards

Day 11 of 30 · 30 Days of AI

Use the model to structure work before writing

Learning goal

  • Create a 2-level outline for a deliverable.
  • Turn it into a simple storyboard or section plan.

Why it matters

  • Planning reduces rewrites and missing sections.
  • Storyboards clarify flow before drafting.

Explanation

  • Prompt for outline with constraints: audience, purpose, length, sections.
  • Add “check for gaps/assumptions” before accepting.
  • Storyboard: title + purpose + bullet notes per section.

Examples

  • Prompt: “Outline a 5-section guide for beginners on X. Include 3 bullets per section, flag missing data.”
  • Weak: “Make an outline.”

Guided exercise (10–15 min)

  1. Pick a deliverable (guide/report/presentation).
  2. Generate a 2-level outline with gaps noted.
  3. Add a short storyboard note per section (purpose + key points).

Independent exercise (5–10 min)

Ask the model to suggest missing data/sources for your outline and note them.

Self-check

  • Outline has sections and bullets.
  • Gaps/assumptions listed.
  • Storyboard notes per section.
