DEVELOPMENT OF A STORY BOARD
What is a storyboard
A storyboard is a graphic
representation of how your video
will unfold, shot by shot. It’s made
up of a number of squares with
illustrations or pictures representing
each shot, with notes about what’s
going on in the scene and what’s
being said in the script during that
shot. Think of it as sort of a comic
book version of your script.
