How to Draw Storyboard
6:33 AM
Storyboard is like a comic, they are visualizaton of the story with the detail of scene. I've heard quote " A picture can tell 1000 word". I think it was from PIXAR. With storyboard, let the picture tell the story. Good storyboard is make the audience know the story without hear from the script writter. Storyboard will be help on production and post production.
In storytelling and storyboarding class, i've get lesson about storyboarding and the element. So, i want write the lesson here for my english practice and university note. Yesterday, on the class i've try to draw a storyboard with 6 panel. But, the storyboard colected by my lecture and i haven't had time to take the picture of my storyboard sketch. So, i give the sample of basic storyboard from who teach me 12 principle animation.
