You don't need to be Rembrandt to tell a story with pictures.

Whatever your artistic ability, from stick figure sketches to polished realism, you can use basic drawing techniques and conventions to plan and communicate your film's story with effective storyboards - a vital skill for all budding filmmakers.

Amateur and student filmmakers planning their first film and facing storyboards for the first time will find this an accessible introduction to a vital subject. They will learn basic drawing techniques such as the use of perspective, light and shade, and depth of field needed to render the human figure in motion. As well as essential components of storyboarding, such as framing, placement of figures and use of camera angles.
