Storyboard

Guide

 

A Storyboard uses information to inform the illustration of a series of images or events in a plot driven story.  The storyboard is often used with screenplays to help with the direction of a film or play. 

 

Rationale:  Research demonstrates that synthesizing information, or taking information and creating new and independent work, increases understanding and retention.

 

Instructions:  Fill at least one piece of 11x17 piece of paper with at least six frames.  Write captions that help the reader understand.
