From opening to closing, timelines are a tool that both the attorney or presenter as well as the jury or audience will come to rely on as the cliff notes guide to any case or presentation.
When it comes to timelines, less is more and no other visual company has more experience with timelines than High Impact. Powerful and effective Timelines with impact are not endless bullet points of text in chronological order. Effective Timelines are visual roadmaps used to point to a visual theme. They organize content in a way that creates a synergistic argument and highlights the key events of a case. Additionally, just as every case has its own personality so should every timeline. No single template or design works for every case. The words or text that comprise a High Impact timeline is only one ingredient ensuring an effective exhibit. Layout, color theory, flow and design are used to make the words make a point, your point.
One should be able to look at an effective timeline design and know what the case or issue is about without even reading the text. The text becomes the details that bring the timeline to life, but a good timeline should be able to stand on its own. Timelines can and should be used effectively in all phases of a trial. From opening to closing, it’s a tool that both the attorney or presenter as well as the jury or audience will come to rely on as the cliff notes guide to any case or presentation. The High Impact team is available to work with you to help organize your thoughts, redact data, create themes, and even dial in your own pre-plotted timelines making them more compelling.
