2. What is a storyboard
• A storyboard is a organizer that is used heavily in the film industry or
in images displayed in a sequence this is for the purpose of
previsualizing a film, animation, motion graphic or interactive media
scene the images below is a storyboard off Indiana Jones.

3. More details into storyboarding
• A storyboard is a visual outline for your video. It’s made up of a series
of thumbnail images that convey what happens in your video, from
beginning to end. It also includes notes about what’s happening in
each frame. A finished storyboard looks like a comic strip.
• Storyboards can be simple or complex. They’re usually hand-drawn,
although some people prefer to use storyboarding software to create
their images. A storyboard is similar to a script, but the two aren’t
quite the same – storyboards are visual, while scripts are text-based.

4. But why do you need them
• Storyboarding adds an extra step to your video creation process, but it’s well
worth the time and effort. Making a storyboard pays off in a number of important
ways. So, if you’re still asking yourself “What is a storyboard? How can I benefit
from it when making my videos?”, here are a few of the top benefits:
• It helps you organize your thoughts. Making a storyboard helps you condense all
the ideas bouncing around your head into one coherent, fleshed-out vision.
• It helps you plan your video more effectively. Video requires you to coordinate a
lot of small but important details. Because of this, it’s difficult (if not downright
impossible) to create a good video on the fly. The more thoroughly you can plan
your video, the better the finished product will turn out.
• It helps you communicate your ideas to other people. You might be able to
envision exactly how you want your video to look, but it can be hard to convey
your ideas to other people using only words. A storyboard bridges that gap for
you, helping your colleagues or clients envision the kind of video you have in
mind.
