Wk 09: Storyboard Studies

Hello all,

This week we are studying from live action and animation films to learn about and expand our visual library of storyboarding.

You can utilize the ArtCenter library for access to films, including their online streaming subscription with Kanopy. Note that if you have access to any LA County library you also have access to Kanopy! Watch the movies and pause for each storyboard you want to study.

In terms of what movies to choose, pick one film that is pre-1990 and the second one can be from any year.

This is what’s for homework:

  • Storyboard studies from live action film

  • storyboard studies from animation film

    Note: 9 studies per page, include movie title on top of page. 5 pages total.

Remember to include all necessary notes for each storyboard study per my example. Good luck and have fun!

This is my live action movie example. Note how I put the “HL”, horizon line, on the storyboard study.

This is my animation film movie example. I have 3 storyboards side by side comparison with the screenshots so you can see how I interpreted them.
