Storyboarding

Also known as comic strip layouts, panel illustrations, sitemaps


Storyboarding is a structured planning process where students create a visual sequence of how a story/multimedia product will unfold. It can be used by educators as a formative assessment strategy prior to the creation of a multimedia task. 

It assists students to make decisions about how things will look and behave in a multimedia product.

It can be adapted to suit the product being created e.g. a website storyboard usually includes one panel for each page on the site, whereas, for filmmaking, each panel usually represents a camera shot and includes details about what the camera will see and show.
