2. Making great productions takes more than great ideas. You need the right raw material. The storyboard can be used as a reminder of the productions content and sequence. Storyboards can also be used to produce the resources to be used in the production.

3. The storyboarding of a presentation is a process. Storyboarding is used to plan, produce and evaluate multimedia presentations.

4. Planning means “developing an outline” A Storyboard is a pictorial and/or written synopsis of text, graphics, videos, animations, etc. shown in the order they will appear in the finished presentation. Professional moviemakers storyboard every scene and camera angle.

5. What Does a Storyboard Do For You?? First, it is a way to work out and discuss your ideas. Second, it is a visualization of how your final product will look. Third, it is a description of how the production is sequenced and put together. Fourth, it is a step by step guide to making and shooting your video, presentation or animation.

6. Be careful though. A storyboard doesn't illustrate every moment in the production. It is not a frame by frame breakdown of the story, but rather a scene by scene breakdown. In each of your storyboard drawings, you want to single out the essential details needed to communicate the information in that particular scene. There are two ways to do this, a visual description and a written description.

7. Three basic steps. 1. Break down your story into its component parts. 2. Judge and choose what shots angles and frame sizes you will put in your project. 3. Develop and put your project together.

9. Advance planning will help ensure that you have good shots. Basic videography techniques will make for results that are more professional.

10. You do not have to shoot your scenes in sequence, that is why we use editors. Describe all of the camera action. Use a variety of camera shots and angles. Use varied lengths of scenes.

11. Too many people mistake a camera for a fire hose They sweep across the scene, panning left and right and back again They zoom in and out, making the viewers wondering whether they’re coming or going.

17. Start with an establishing shot that clues viewers in on where your story takes place. Storyboard Terms

18. From there, you might cut to a medium shot that introduces your movie's subject. Next, you might cut away to Mary tossing the ball. Cut back to Bobby, and then finish with a long shot of the entire scene.

20. Written Scripts Only Used for larger productions. The storyboard previously created offers a visual summary. Scripts provide more detail and precise instructions.

21. Resembles a basic outline, only show segments and times stated. Segments may be spontaneous. Brought together “on the fly.” Opening and closing fully scripted but individual segments are only outlines. Semi-Scripted Shows

23. Fully Scripted Shows Complete audio and video for every minute. Unpleasant surprises are minimized. Every shot in production is fully written out. Clear, step by step format. Material presented creatively, success is when all audience had same clear idea.

25. Logical and linear is the most natural approach. Techniques such as flashbacks and parallel stories add variety and help to stimulate. Getting your audience’s attention: Emotions Fresh Care Variety
