Storyboards and Storyboarding

Week 3 Post 4

MY STORYBOARDS:

What is storyboarding?

A storyboard consists of illustrations and/or images that display in sequence the visuals of a motion picture, animation, motion graphic, or interactive media. Storyboarding is a crucial part of the pre-production of a film, television series, animation, game design, advertising, comic, book, or any other form of visuals. Storyboards are used a visual script.

Based off of my research, storyboarding can be used for the following...

Art of the plan

As it is used as a use of drawing, storyboarding can help to illustrate art to communicate context. This cam limits the potential of a story or script, by visualizing a scene to reduce the shooting of too many scenes.

Aspects and ratio

Each frame can be used to represent what the camera and, moving forward, audience, will see. The rectangles provided in the graphic organizer most of the time is based on the planned shooting aspect ratio, or the width to height of frame. Storyboards can aid in choices made about lighting, depth of field, location, and camera angles. The arrows indicate where the movement of the character or object is headed. 

Some key drawing conventions and features include:

• Anatomy
• Shapes
• Composition
• Scale
• Viewpoints
• Frame division
• Depth of field
• Light and tonality
• Horizon lines, vanishing points, and perspective

Sharing a vision

Storyboards are a great way for people to visualize ideas and brainstorm new ones, especially while working with others.
