Practical guide
Write audience instructions that do not depend only on colour
Write audience instructions that do not depend only on colour. Practical live-host checklist, fictional example and limits to check before your next session.
Communication checklist
- Pair colours with names or numbers.
- Describe the control position.
- Test instructions in a grayscale preview.
Fictional worked example
In a fictional rehearsal, a rehearsal recording reveals an instruction that depends on context. The team turns the problem into a concrete check: pair colours with names or numbers. Next, they describe the control position. If the answer still depends on missing information, they test instructions in a grayscale preview.
Limits and next check
State any unverified fact and provide a follow-up route. Test this explanation with a listener who has not seen the preparation notes.
