Weekly group crits and individual guidance will help you explore styles and sequence drawing techniques,working from quick thumbnail sketches to final storyboards. You'll also learn how to conceptualize and compose your frames, vary camera shots and the fundamentals of visually developing a scene with a director. In-class exercises, lectures and simulated real-world job assignments will broaden your understanding of how storyboards are used in preproduction and during the production of a film. The business side of storyboards will be covered, from how to find work and negotiate a fair rate with a producer to the pros and cons of working with an agent. By the end of the course, you'll know how to pursue a career as a storyboard artist and create the first visuals that spark the visual magic of movies, TV shows and music videos.
