A storyboard is a graphical representation
of the shots to be taken in a film sequence. These are all to be connected by a
narrative or concept behind it. The story is envisioned through a series of
drawings accompanied by annotation which depict the location, characters,
props and setting of each shot. The annotations involve detailing the action,
camera directions and type of shot, lighting directions and basic
dialogue.
What is a storyboard for?
A storyboard is an outline of what the
film will look like but in written, motionless projects. It enables the
director to visualize the flow of camera shots and sets that they want to
eventually appear on the camera screen. The process of storyboarding is to help
the director decide the sequences of shots, the movement of actors, camera
directions and lighting directions. The storyboard illustrates how the
narrative will flow from one shot to the next as the audience watched the film.
