Storyboarding (Graphic Visualising Process)

Storyboard are graphic organizers in the form of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture,animation, motion graphic,or interactive media sequence.

Why is storyboarding important?
Pitching an idea
Links planning to the filming process
Visualize images and ideas
Visualize links between shots, action/graphic matches (when similar shapes/objects are linked between scenes)
Timings, continutity and pace
Technical awareness and understanding
Revise narrative sequencing
Chance o make desicions and revisions.

Things to include when we make a storyboard:
-number all of the shots as this makes it easier to edit.
-use arrows to show where the camera/character is moving.
-put the estimate of the times of each shot.

Its not advised to use lots of cutting in your filming, you can use the camera to tell the story which adds to the films verisimilitude.
I have also learnt you can film some shots any order which gives you time to plan certain shots. Everything comes togeteher when you edit so it doesnt really matter which order you film the scenes in.
