Storyboards

I do not have a specific style in storyboards, I just tend to go with what crosses my mind when design it !What I mean by style is, -Template style, design colour scheme and movement indication techniques-

I believe having a style is really important, but again it all depends on the type of final animation to be produced! 


I did some research on the different storyboards ever produced (Advertisement, film, cartoon...) andthey all have different styles based on the final animation !

My area of study

I have two areas of study - The first one which is my main focus is "Digital Cut-out animation which I use to produce animatics" and the second one is "Producing storyboards".

Storyboards - What are they ?
According to Wikipedia, Storyboards are graphic organizers such as a series of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive media sequence, including website interactivity.

 I personally think that storyboarding is a way of pre-visualizing an animation of some sort (or more like film) and the way of putting these ideas together in an organized way (also I think storyboards are like animatics drafts that can be changed anytime before prducing the final animatic for the final animation).
