A good final product is only as good as its plan. Storyboards are the most important part of planning. You need to complete them properly before you start filming, otherwise the filming and editing process can become a nightmare, and your final product will have a messy 'make do and mend' quality. Plan properly - it will be worth it.
Story boards should contain the following for each shot:
- Shot name
- Duration of shot
- Brief description of action
- Drawing of shot
No stick men/women drawings.
