Animation Worksheet: Storyboards

Animation and design lesson 7: Storyboards · Set 415 · 40 questions
TalentJR

Creator's tip (Plan before you animate): Script = the words; storyboard = a quick sketch of each shot; animatic = the storyboard timed with sound. Film length = panels × seconds each; panels = film length ÷ seconds each. Order: idea → storyboard → keyframes → in-betweens → colour and sound → share.
