Pre-Production Storyboard

It is essential to create a storyboard before any filming as it helps visualize the scenes and find potential problems before they occur. Storyboards include basic drawings or arrows or instructions that indicate movement. The storyboard provides a visual layout of events as they are to be seen through the camera lens.

Below is the storyboard that we hope to re-create in our sequence.
