Storyboarding is a critical phase of a film’s pre-production. The director and storyboard artist collaborate to produce a series of almost comic book-like panels, which serve to visualize for the director how his or her film will be shot. Storyboarding is equally valuable to large, moderate, and low-budget productions.
