Crossing the line

It seems only natural
When you storyboard, it seems only natural that you look at the faces of the actors. As you are drawing, it seems perfectly natural to show frame #3 below followed by frame #4.
It is only when you begin to edit the two shots together that you will see the problem. It is not evident when you are storyboarding.
That is why you must make a special effort to check your storyboards for "crossing the line". This is a last step that you draw your thumbnail storyboards. And if you find this problem, you must try again. |
