    What I learned over the years about storyboarding 1) Characters don't move until their legs move. No jump Cuts 2) Have a story reason behind every shot. Example if a character has a zit make it as big as possible or do an extreme close up.

    As someone who literally got pushed into the storyboard pool 3 months ago working as intern and now Im a mini jobbing trainee I am super stoked about this video. I feel still like a total beginner but I already board whole scripts of episodes and it feels wild. Im learning with the flow but still your recommendations are gold to me. I will totally start doing more exercises at home too!

    Hello, thank you for your videos :)
    I'm a total junior and I have a question for a personal project :
    I have a text I'd like to board. It's a tense dialogue scene, so the rhythm is based on the lines. But I suck at acting with my voice. I'm not sure where to put the pauses or how long some words should be. And so I'm a bit stuck, cause some shots' length depends on the lines, but I'm not sure if my lines have the good timing.
    Should I still continue with my awful records and then improvise the timing ? ( But I'd still be embarrassed to show those records in a demo...)
    Should I ask someone to record it ? (But without showing them a board clear enough, might be difficult to convey my intentions...)
    So yeah, I'm a bit confused about the steps with dialogue scenes ha ha...

      Having a close group of friends with vested interests helps, that way you don't have the pressure of paying them for a service when they'll do it help you. I helped a lot of friends with things and they've helped me back, I think that is important even outside the industry

    Level 5 you mentioned tone and mood and being able to be versatile so that we dont fall into one genre. so my question is when applying for a job, if we were to have a storyboard with the genre of drama (for example) and we get hired based on that how could we showcase that we can do other genres?

      if you're applying for a studio, your portfolio should display different scenes and scenarios. An action show could have comedic moments. A feature story board could have goofy moments.

    What the difference between storyboarding for animation vs boarding for comics or commercials?? Even though the processes are similar

    • @allanredhill8682
      @allanredhill8682 Год назад +10

      At least regarding comics youre gonna be thinking differently about your compositions due to paneling and text bubbles. While in animation youre basically sketching the rough draft of a movie wich means its needs to be more sequential and grounded in a cinematic language (tho there is a lot of overlap between the two ofc)

    If the storyboard artist doesn't normally write aN episode, who does? I always kind of assumed TV animation writers these days have to be able to storyboard with all of those storyboard driven shows going around in this past decade.

    • @zigzaq
      @zigzaq Год назад +10

      I think storyboard artists generally board out whatever’s in the script (written by separate people) in a script-driven show. But for board-driven shows I think there’s still scripts and direction for the episode from writers ahead of time but artists will come up with more dialogue and gags. Sorry if I misinterpreted your question

    • @LemonMoon
      @LemonMoon Год назад +6

      For board driven shows, at least on Steven Universe, there was an episode outline given by the writer of that episode given to the board team, who would then do the dialogue and stuff like that.
