Design review is an important milestone in product development and you can also conduct it in asynchronous format which is still about a two-way communication and can be used for enhancing your design review process at a glance.

Here’s the template that helps you to conduct the asynchronous design review and provides the example checklist to make your presentation more meaningful and informative (feel free to modify the items so they fit your exiting process).

Asynchronous Design Review

Here’s an example of how you can structure your presentation for the 5-minute video, but the duration of your shortcast depends on the functionality you review. If you need more time to present, use 10-minute videos or split your review into a couple of shortcasts.

Tips And Tricks

Make sure you send your shortcast to a couple of reviews first — it will give you feedback you can incorporate before you share it with everyone
Add more personalized user stories and examples to your design review to make it more engaging and focus on the real problems your users face in the product
Store you design review video in Shortcast cloud storage until the final implementation of your design so everyone can get back for additional context at anytime
Record yourself while you present (according to Massachusetts Institute of Technology research, videos that intersperse an instructor’s talking head with slides are more engaging than slides alone)
