Purpose
of Storyboarding
Storyboarding is a part of the pre-production
of most movies and digital games. The purpose of it is to help visualize what
the film or digital movie is going to look like. Not only does storyboarding
help you to visualize your film or digital game but it also helps to make sure
that the story makes sense and links together appropriately. For example I made
a storyboard where a kid named josh was getting bullied and then mistakenly
changing his name half way through. I would notice on the story board the it doesn’t
make sense
The purpose of storyboarding is to help
make decisions in the pre-production of the film to make sure that the story is
good enough to start the actual production, this saves money and helps the
story writer visualize the scenes step by step so that not only he can see what
the final product will look like but also the production team around him.
The purpose of storyboarding is to help
brainstorming and to process the producers ideas into a series of illustrations
and cartoons with small captions explaining what is going on in the scenes. Brainstorming
is a great example of a purpose of storyboarding as before making nearly any
production whether It be a large movie project, an animated cartoon, a comic
strip of even a flow chart the first step is nearly always brainstorming onto a
storyboard to give the producer a rough idea what this production is going to
look like before going through with it.
After brainstorming for the storyboard
you should be left with lots of ideas, these ideas should now be translated
into small illustrations in order to tell a story, making sure that all the
ideas you have will work and make sense in the same story. For example I have
brainstormed a movie to be about a terrorist attack, inside a school or a
college with a student hero that saves the college. From then I will draw a
short series of illustrations that puts all of these ideas together and then
make sure it makes sense. My first picture will be the first scene of the move
that has an illustration of a kid inside a classroom getting bullied. To help
to explain this scene to other people, I will add captions at the bottom. In
this example, the super hero kid sat in the middle of class being bullied.
Another purpose of storyboarding is to
create a final storyboard, a final storyboard is once the creators are
satisfied with their rough drawings, and they will then proceed to do a series
of full color illustrations to create a more finished story board. These colors
will be used to set the scene of the movie. Carrying on with my previous
example where I would’ve written my first rough storyboard, I will then draw
the picture of the boy in the classroom getting bullied in color to make a more
finished look for other people to see and give their opinion.
