Description

If you want to create an animation, you’ll need to make something else first: A Storyboard!

A storyboard is a planned sequence of key scenes of how your animation or film will unfold, shot by shot.

In this class, I’ll walk you through how to storyboard for an animation based on your own individual story’s needs.

You will explore the process of:

Identifying the main theme of your story
Collecting relevant references
Learning the Principles of Storyboarding
Learning Terminology
Creating beat boards
Thumbnailing your script/story
Drafting your storyboard
Finalising your Storyboard

By the end of this class, students will know how to storyboard effectively based on their core story theme, and have completed a storyboard ready to be animated.

These skills can also be applied into creating animatics or motion comics.

Those without an existing story idea will be given a link to a version of "The Emperor's new clothes". Feel free to reinterpret and adapt this in any way for your board!

Instructor's Courses

I'm Sue, a freelance storyboard artist, comic artist and illustrator who loves whales (and animals in general)!

So far, my professional work includes creating storyboards for both TV productions and several YouTube animated series. I've also drafted and drawn lineart for comics on a commission basis and illustrate webcomics in personal work. Usually, comics are my way of experimenting with different types of storytelling, trying to understand other perspectives and it's how I share my personal thoughts.

Most of my classes cover art fundamentals and storytelling because that's what drives me to make art! If that sounds like your jam, feel free to join in!
