Storyboarding

[flotone]

I'm looking for a free download of a storyboard so I can use it before I start filming. Any help would be great.

Thanks a bunch

What is it you wanted to download? A physical piece of paper ???

your question doesn't make too much sense.

Draw a square or rectangle on a piece of paper.. then draw in your shot.

I dunno what you were referring to with your question.. but storyboards are just drawn panels... *just open word or something.. make some empty squares on the page.. print then draw. presto.

i made my own in word because it prints a heck of alot faster than *when the whole storyboard page is an image. if its just boxes and lines and text in word an inkjet can spit them out in no time .

In response to Loki's comments...

Storyboard templates are often much more involved then just a "square on a piece of paper"... often times there are blanks where scene numbers and shot numbers can be written in. Places where the actor's involved are notated and any special equipment for a shot can be listed.
And perhaps most importantly... the aspect ratio of the shot needs to be the same as it will be when you're shooting, otherwise it will throw your framing off.

To answer the original question... there are numerous places on line that you'll find if you just google "storyboard templates".

good luck!

my comments were in a sarcastic tone.. I am aware that real Production storyboards are more than just images... but honestly his question wasn't exactly all that specific..

owell.. I guess I will put the word <sarcasm> at the end of my sarcastic posts from now on ;)

Hudson posted a great one a while back. Can't for the life of me remember where, though I'm sure if he stumbles across this, he'll point you in the right direction.
