Your mood comes to life with design boards

 

Now that you've made all these decisions in your mood board (and ideally a style guide as well), it's time to see what it looks like with what you're actually going to create. Design boards are a great way to see how your mood board comes to life, and if it's what you intended. Also, if the animation is complex, it's also a very important checkpoint with your client to make sure you're both on the same page with where the animation is going.

I like how The School of Life puts it: "Good design helps us be the best versions of ourselves."
