The main idea here is: the earlier everybody sees what’s ahead, the better they will be prepared.

Yes. You're also articulating a tenant of change management; you must first raise awareness before you can ever expect acceptance of a change.

One of our designers recently recorded a video and audio walk through of their design. The combination of them explaining things and some subtle editorials really helped me frame my follow-up questions.

That video walk through allowed each team member to watch asynchronously and begin assembling their thoughts. And from there we can have a more focused synchronous conversation; allowing introverts to think then speak and also providing a forum for extroverts to think out loud.
