Tut 5- Benefits of using a storyboard

When creating a short film the process can be broken down when using a storyboard for initial planning. By visually planning our short film we began with the idea of using Barbie dolls and expanded from there. We drew small sketches of general camera shots we would use for each scene that went along with our storyline. When it came to the actual filming we ended up with rather a large group. With larger numbers behind the scenes, the process could have been complicated dictating what angles and where scenes would be shot. By having a pre-planned storyboard the process was less complicated as we followed the plan and everyone knew what the initial vision of the film was.
