Storyboards are used as a means to pre-visualize a motion picture. Storyboards are essentially a comic strip of a proposed film. They are created to help producers and directors visualize scenes before they are shot and to help identify potential filming problems before they occur. Most storyboards include arrows that indicate the motion in the scene and written descriptors that explain what is happening in each frame.

Your storyboard must include the following:

The title of your film
Minimum of 9 frames
- Frames must contain detailed, colored drawings (no stick figures)
Written descriptor and motion arrows for each frame
- You must state what is happening in each frame
- You must identify all characters in each frame
- You must describe what motion is happening in each frame
- You must estimate how much time each frame will take in the film
