What You Will Learn

Story artists plan scenes out shot by shot, largely shaping your favorite movies and tv shows. In this course, become a story artist and learn to block out your own stories through storyboarding! Students will practice conveying stories through single drawings, create their own stories and original characters, and storyboard their own story.
