Filmmaking Basics/Thumbnail Storyboard/Using the storyboard library

Creating a storyboard by using the storyboard library

The Storyboard Library

To use these storyboards, simple write down the numbers of the frames you like.

As new frames are used at this site, they are added to the library of Storyboard Frames so all you have to do is print out either the Storyboard Worksheet or Script Outline and look at the library of Storyboard Frames and write the number of the storyboard on the worksheet.

The library page will eventually be moved to Reference:SBTDS:Storyboard Frames.

Kasturika has completed this assignment (pdf) (23 May 2007) Good job! 10 points

Kasturika says, "I used the Microsoft paint application.

I took a screen shot of the storyboard, converted it into bitmap image, made the frames separately and pasted them.

Then I used OpenOffice.org Draw to export the bitmap image as PDF."

Yet, these are still very simple thumbnail storyboards. Please look at these storyboards!!!!
