Visual - Progress Photo Strip.

A photo strip that proves progress by laying three to five shots of the same spot, taken at different times, in order across one row. Each frame carries a stage number with a date tag and a one-line caption underneath, and the frames are linked by a single arrow character. It carries no figures or percent-complete readings, only the change you can see.

Overview

Best for: Progress reporting from construction and renovation sites, evidencing product development milestones with screenshots, event and campaign recaps, and stage-by-stage field reporting on production or assembly lines

Use: Use it when shots of the same spot taken at different times have to be lined up in order to show, visually, how far something has come. Three to five photos sit side by side in one row, each with a stage number, a date tag, and a one-line caption below it. Typical homes are construction and renovation progress reports, screenshot evidence of product milestones, event and campaign recaps, and stage-by-stage production reporting. It is most convincing when every frame was shot from the same angle with the same composition.

Avoid: Use chart-progress-bars or timeline-plan-vs-actual when progress has to be stated as a figure or a percentage. Use visual-image-compare-split for exactly two shots (before and after), visual-photo-collage to feature several images with no order, visual-portfolio-grid to list separate projects, and visual-bleed-band-caption when one wide image leads the slide. Use process-timeline-steps when icon and text nodes carry the stages, and company-history for a narrative chronology. Past six photos the frames narrow until the images stop reading, so group them or split across two slides.
