Tell the script writer and the storyboarder what must be true, in two hundred characters.

Look rules describe what every board must look like: a palette in hex codes, a recurring character, 'stick figures only', 'no scenery'. Production notes describe what the video must do: a number card for each point, a disclaimer as the last board, a line the opening must keep. Both go in the same box; the script writer reads the production notes and the storyboarder reads all of them.
Name an aesthetic, list three to five concrete ingredients, and state one thing that must never happen. Short and absolute beats long and polite. 'Warm, engaging visuals' does nothing; 'ochre and slate blue only, one recurring woman in a teal jacket, never draw text inside speech bubbles' does everything.
For list videos, ask for a bold number card at the start of each point; the narration should say the number out loud so the card lands on the right board. A disclaimer card needs its own narration line to become its own board; if you only ask for the card, it is drawn on the last board instead.
The chips under the box insert tested notes: stick figures, brand colours, diagrams only, a recurring hero, number cards, a disclaimer card. Click several; they stack.
Production notes can: 'keep the five things preview' will be honoured. Look rules never change the words.
Up to 600 characters. Most good notes are under 300.
Yes. Describe shape, clothing and one prop; the character sheet keeps them identical on every board.
Not yet. Ask for the brand colours and a plain hand-lettered headline instead.
