A visual metaphor for the Interview Report: creating motion from a set of static snapshots.
The horse in motion, illustration by Eadweard Muybridge. “Sallie Gardner,” owned by Leland Stanford, running at a 1:40 gait over the Palo Alto track, 19 June 1878: 2 frames showing diagram of foot movements.

Another example of an interview report. This one is more of a transcript than the narrative I am looking for, but the way it visualizes the interview is compelling.
