CAST and the Visual Story Map
I keep six honest serving-men (They taught me all I knew); Their names are What and Where and When And How and Why and Who.
—Rudyard Kipling, Nobel Prize-winning novelist famous for his short stories.
Over the next few hundred pages we are going to cover a lot of material. Chapter 1 explained why the visual story is important. In this chapter we provide an overview of what we you will learn, and in Chapter 3 we explain how you can get the most from this book. Because we are going to show you how to bring together a wide range of different techniques we thought it would be very important to provide an overview, so you can see how it will all fit together, and also to give an early insight into where all of the techniques we use have come from. Each chapter will provide a lot more detail on the sources for the techniques, and you can find a prioritized list of references in the Appendix.
