To bring this project to life, I followed the ADDIE instructional design model, which allowed me to approach the project systematically from concept to completion.
I began by meeting with a Subject Matter Expert (SME) to explore the problem: inconsistent interpretations of workplace casual attire. Together, we identified the core behaviors that needed to change and developed an action map to define the learning goals and guide content direction.
Using the action map, I created a text-based storyboard that introduced a scenario-based narrative aligned with the learning objectives. I collaborated closely with the SME throughout the design phase to ensure the storyline was accurate, engaging, and instructionally sound.
Once the storyboard was approved, I shifted focus to visual design. I created high-fidelity mockups based on a defined mood board and color scheme, using a comic-style aesthetic to keep the tone light and memorable. After receiving approval, I developed a functioning prototype to demonstrate interactivity, which helped validate the user experience before full production.
I developed the full animation in Vyond, bringing the characters and story to life. I then imported the video into Storyline 360 to layer in interactivity, such as clickable hotspots, quizzes, and judgment-style decision points. This allowed learners to engage with the content more deeply while reinforcing key messages through humor and repetition.
Once development was complete, I conducted multiple rounds of peer and professional feedback reviews. I gathered insights from instructional designers and eLearning users to refine the pacing, polish visual consistency, and ensure smooth functionality across platforms. These iterations strengthened both the instructional integrity and learner experience of the final product.
