Take your video production to the next level.

What we mean to say is, whatever level you are on, let’s go ahead and move to the next one. If there is no next level, we can take you back one and then proceed to move forward. That’s where the backflip comes in.

Storyboarding tips

We purchased a Wacom tablet this afternoon to streamline our storyboarding process a bit more. I was really excited to test it out but ended up having to scrap a half hour of work because I made a few mistakes. Here they are, learn from them:

  • read the script – i thought i had the right idea/text in my head, it turns out that I didn’t. The script was a little different than what I used and I ended up going in the wrong direction with the storyboard
  • label correctly – i labeled the job the wrong, too excited to be bothered with correct title
  • read your notes – again, i went in the wrong direction because i didn’t look at our original sketches
  • read the script – yeah, i feel dumb for missing this ;)

We bought the ‘Bamboo Capture Pen & Touch’ model and so far love it. Once I setup the software and preferences it really helped streamline our process. Anyone else have examples of storyboarding that caused a palm-to-forehead experience? Share it in the comments.
