Animation and data storytelling
A top responsibility for many data professionals is the ability to convey their findings to others in a clear and compelling fashion.

For these meetings, the data professional or team has already identified the analytical insights to highlight but must plan to properly communicate this message to the specific stakeholders or audience.
Power BI animation features, including bookmarks as described in Chapter 6, Planning Power BI Reports, provide powerful support for data storytelling.
