What is the One-Take Journey workflow?
The one-take explainer — a single hero travelling through a workflow's stations with no cuts, each station reacting as it lands, the camera following a beat behind and pulling out to the whole path before the last hop, which slows at its top — as a workflow. Name your app; what travels (a message the user sends, a request) and four or five steps in your app's words are written, and the film is drawn frame by frame, ending on your app's name.
