Digital Video (2 of 4): Storyboards

What are Storyboards?

Storyboards are graphic organizers in the form of illustrations displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a video or animation.

Storyboards are produced beforehand to help film directors, cinematographers and television commercial advertising clients visualize the scenes and find potential problems before they occur.
