STORYBOARDING<br />
A storyboard is the visual script of a project in picture form.<br />
A storyboard is a series of images that simply illustrate the movie’s key sequences and scenes.<br />
Each drawing should visually describe a key shot of your sequence (scene part).<br />
The Process ...<br />
1. Work out a concept or idea for your movie<br />
2. Discuss your ideas with your production team<br />
3. Visualise the characters, location and type of shots in your movie<br />
4. Break your story up into parts<br />
5. Discuss and choose the types of shots you will use<br />
6. Think about the length of each shot and how it will work in each sequence of shots<br />
7. Combine the shots to make up the shot sequences in the scene (*see Shot, Sequence, Scene)<br />
8. Draw a representation of each shot on a grid (stick figures are fine)<br />
9. Add a third dimension to your drawings by adding ...<br />
• Symbols – direction arrows, motion strokes<br />
• Speech bubbles<br />
• An indication of the depth and dimension of each shot<br />
• An indication of zoom, pan, dolly, tilt<br />
Check ...<br />
1. Your storyboard against the pitch<br />
2. You have a variety of shots<br />
• Wide (WS)... establishing shots<br />
• Mid (MS)... interaction shots<br />
• Close Up (CU)... emotion, expression shots<br />
• Point of View (POV)<br />
• Action and reaction shots<br />
3. You have a variety of shot angles<br />
• High<br />
• Mid<br />
• Low<br />
4. Action shots are followed by a physical or emotional reaction<br />
5. Against a predetermined set of criteria for evaluation... eg a rubric<br />
