Storyboard Practice Worksheet in Google Classroom

Storyboard Practice Worksheet

Tuesday November 15, 2022 Assignment

In our the Basic Visual Storytelling Project.  You will be in groups and using a camera taking compositional shots on the focus statement your group choose to do.  First you will practice the skill used in Pre-production: storyboarding.

What is a Storyboard?
A storyboard is a graphic organizer that plans a narrative. Storyboards are a powerful way to visually present information; the linear direction of the cells is perfect for storytelling, explaining a process, and showing the passage of time. At their core, storyboards are a set of sequential drawings to tell a story. By breaking a story into linear, bite-sized chunks, it allows the author to focus on each cell separately, without distraction.

Directions: Note, A hardcopy of this assignment will be given in class. Think about a time, memory or an experience that shaped the person who you are today, sketch and draw the scenes of  that experience or memory.  When drawing your scenes, think about the 5 basic compositional  shots we learned in class. Below your sketch describes the shot and what we will be seeing.
Rubric - Sketch is Clear (3 Points); Sketched Various Shots (3 Points); sketched filled 6 shot scenes and describe the shot (18 Points)

Advice from Ms. Miguel:  
Choose and plan your compositional visual shots wisely.  If you use the same compositional visual framing continously, this may be boring and you will loose your audience.    For example 1 is close up and 2nd is a close up.  
To learn about the Storyboarding watch the Intro to Storyboarding attached to this assignment posting.
When you are done with the assignment, please place it in your class folders until Ms. Miguel asks for it to be turned in.
