Sequence
Sequence layers manifest as tangible strips you stretch, shift, and splice in 3D space—no scroll bars needed.
Sequence strips are not abstract bars—they float as ribbons along your workspace, each colored and sized to reflect effort and priority. Drag one forward and the next strip nudges just enough to maintain safe clearance. Buffer zones appear as translucent pads between strips, growing or shrinking with your pull. You feel pacing not by counting days, but by how tightly the ribbons sit against each other.
Try a fast-paced sequence: short strips, tight gaps, and sudden turns in direction create visual rhythm like a quick-cut scene. When the sequence feels rushed, the strips huddle and dim; ease the tension and they glow softer, wider. Your instinct tells you what a spreadsheet’s slope can’t: that a 3-day buffer feels right, that a 14-day gap is a gap too wide to hold attention.
This lets you rehearse real-time motion. Walk past a sequence strip and it plays like a timeline scrubbed forward—nodes flicker on as you pass, showing where teams stand in time. You can pause mid-strip and zoom in on the node where lighting and rigging converge, making sure the handoff feels natural. Sequence becomes choreography, not computation.
