The second template that guides the backstage is called Categorize Story Elements. Here the design team organizes and interprets the collected materials to assist them in the design process. The template is laid flat on a desk and each team member categorizes their inspirational collections individually under three themes; People, Places and Objects.

The themes are represented by three intersecting Venn diagrams to be filled with images according to their relevance (See Fig. 17). Then, as a group, the elements placed on the canvas are sorted for potential building blocks of a context of experience. We call this template Categorize Story Elements since it provides a pool of potential elements for the participants to choose from in later stages. During our studies, we observed that Template2 serves the following purposes; (1) it helps individual designers to organize their visual collections and focus on the project space. (2) Sorting collections according to people, places and objects appropriates materials to be used as story elements. (3) Participants see each other’s collections and get inspired by each other while they try to pick appropriate materials together, which also encourages discussion. (4) Filling the canvas serves as a good warming-up exercise for the team members to familiarize themselves with the process and each other.
