The document provides tips for storyboarding a film. It recommends that storyboard panels clearly identify who is in each picture through distinguishing features, include notes on lighting, action, and movement between panels, use arrows and outlines to show camera moves like zooming and tracking, and number each frame for organization. Storyboards created with these tips can help filmmakers visualize the story, shots, and camera movements before, during, and after a shoot.
