Research On Storyboards

Storyboards are graphic organizers such as a series of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive media sequence, including website interactivity.The storyboarding process, in its original form (which is still used today), was developed at the Walt Disney Studio during the early 1930s, after several years of similar processes being in use at Walt Disney and other animation studios.
Storyboarding helps directors and other members of the film making team to visualise what a scene will look like and can prepare them for the filming process. It can save a lot of time and money on set as all the shots have already been planned.

Notice the arrows-which symbolise the movement of a certain object or character

As you can see, this snippet from a storyboard focuses on reaction shots and close up's of the victim and villian
