Storyboard information

Your storyboard post shoud include:

Information about what is a stroyboard and why it's important for music video production, for example;

The storyboard is a visual draft of a story; in this case, the story is set to music. The music dictates the visuals used in the video, thereby telling the story; or else the music supports the visuals, which means the story is already told and the music supplements the story.


Either way, the storyboard provides a sketch of the flow of the audio and video. Storyboards are not set in stone and can be revised as needed. Here are a few guidelines to get you on your way to creating a storyboard for a music video.

Then a checklist of how to create your storyboard;

1. Print the lyrics of the song to understand what is being said
2 Listen to the music to determine the tempo, beats and rhythm.
3 Have plenty of copies of the blank storyboard form
4 Listen to the music again to document time codes, in minutes and seconds, for changes in the music, changes in rhythm and/or the playing of minor instruments.
5 Sketch a scene on the storyboard according to a change in the music.
6 Review the storyboard with the music to ensure the visuals and music relay the intended message.

7 Draw arrows from one scene to the next and write the type of transition you will use between each scene.
8 Present the storyboard to a third party for feedback
