Blog 11 – Storyboard and Animatic

A story board is such as a series of illustrations or images displayed in sequence pre visiulised in the order they are going to be seen. It should contain notes of the action sound camera movements and shot type. It is needed for planning the filming and on location of shooting the video so the actors, directors and camera operators all know exactly what they have to do.


For the animatic we started by taking a still shot of every picture from our storyboard on a video camera. We then transferred the pictures onto the computer and placed them in a folder called animatic which could be opened on final cut pro.

Once we did that we were able to edit and cut shots and scenes in order to create a video that is time with the song being used. This was very useful as it gave us expirience on the softwear, helped us to spot problems we may have and also we got to see what we liked and disliked about the video.
