Title card reading: [Storyboarding Basics. Brought to you by NU Animation Club, March 23 2023]. There is a chibi drawing of Feeb drawing on a CINTIQ

Types of shots: Distance from the camera Close shot: intimacy, emphasis on charater emotion. Example is a close up shot of Gandalf’s face from Fellowship of the Ring. Long shot: grandiose, emphasis on location. Example is a long shot of Legolas, Gimli, and Aragorn arriving at Rohan, visible on a hill in the distance, from the Two Towers. Note: never start with a close shot. Start with as much location as possible to set the stage for your audience

Rule of thirds: Divide the screen into thirds horizontally and vertically. Try and keep focal points (like eyes) where the lines intersect! Incorrect example shows Araluna from Archmage Ascending with her eyes below the top third horizontal line. Correct example shows Araluna from Archmage Ascending with her eyes on the top third horizontal line.

Don’t cut characters off: make sure not to cut off a shot at the characters’ joints. Be especially careful of knees, elbows, hips. Incorrect example shows a shot of Power and Denji posing for the camera. The left side of the frame cuts off at Power’s wrist. The bottom of the frame cuts off at Denji’s ankles. Correct example shows a shot of Power and Denji posing for the camera. The left side of the frame cuts off at Power’s forearm. The bottom of the frame cuts off at Denji’s calves.

What is “shorthand”? Shorthand: a very simplified art style for storybordd that prioritized shape Do: include shape, size, expression Do not: include detail Example is an image of Ryuk from Death Note besides a shorthand drawing of him to scale. These are NOT illustrations / lineart, they are GUIDES!

Perspective & Gridlines: It is NECESSARY to include gridlines to make your perspective clear for the background artist. An incorrect example shows Araluna falling on a blank background. Three correct examples show the same image with gridlines in the background. One shows the gridline as a flat ground. The other shows the gridlone a slanted background in fish eye perspective. The last shows the gridline as a receding wall parallel to the character.

Perspective cheat code: No matter how close characters* are to the camera, the horizontal line will always cross them at the same part of their body. * must be the same height Incorrect example shows the horizon line cross Dokja Kim at his shoulders and Junghyeok Yoo, who is in the background, at his knees. Correct example shows the horizon line cross Dokja Kim and Junghyeok Yoo, who is in the background, at their shoulders.

Perspective tip! Try to avoid having the horizon line run through the middle of the screen. Raising or lowering the the horizon gives your shots a cinematic feel. Incorrect shot of Riza Hawkeye running in a forest has the horizon line crossing the center of the frame. Incorrect shot of Riza Hawkeye running in a forest has the horizon line crossing close to the top of the frame. Incorrect shot of Riza Hawkeye running in a forest has the horizon line crossing close to the bottom of the frame.

a couple snippets from a presentation i gave at school this past week on storyboarding!!

‼️DISCLAIMER: I am a still a student and have only worked on student and indie projects! This is just stuff that I personally find helpful as an amateur, so feel free to take it with a grain of salt!

Happy boarding, friends! ✍️💕

Making this guide because I see this question time and time again on here. This post is mostly directed at white artists and writers who are wondering how to best design their characters of color. Full text description is at the end under the cut.

Full disclaimer, I am biracial (mixed E/SE asian and white) and grew up in majority poc communities, but I am just one person and this post is only based on my own experiences. If any other poc want to chime in, feel free to do so.

Once again, a full plaintext description is under the cut. If you find the information useful, please pass it on by reblogging <3

(Finally, even though I spoke vaguely on genetic inheritance, this is NOT the place to comment on certain features being mutations, as if being a mutation means something is inherently lesser or isn’t supposed to exist. Mutations is everything! All of our traits were at some point or another, an emerging mutation. Love yourself ^__^)
