Panel presentation

An illustrated presenter lays the document's points and numbers onto a board, card by card.

Document: Wikipedia: Cardiopulmonary resuscitation; Wikipedia, "Cardiopulmonary resuscitation" (rev 1382701468); the product's writer chose the scenes, narrated in the Ada and Theo and Cole voices. Kind: steps and rules; Panel presentation suits this kind. In the showcase video the Zıpır team chose the format.

Panel presentation across the eight document kinds

It suits 2 kinds; for the other 6, another format works better. The sentence on a row that does not suit is the note the panel shows on that document.
