Liz, we absolutley make use of scenarios. We've done this in-depth in projects where we were developing OS-level frameworks for mobile phones (i.e.: not simply single apps, but OS frameworks for all subsequent common interface elements and interactions for associated apps). These include both types of users as well as types of tasks or goals.
It varies from project to project how incorporate this into the project beyond pantomiming in order to test our assumptions during the development of interactional architecture, interrelationships, archetypal elements, and flows. We have included these in deliverables in order to contextually explain how certain needs will be served, and sometimes it's just how we speed up our own thinking and decision-making. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
