Oh man, storyboarding drives me freakin nuts. I've attempted it a few times over the years on a couple of short films and it just doesn't work for me. Kind of like doing the taxes or something, doesn't fit in that side of my brain for whatever reason.

OTOH, take Sin City, Rodriguez had that already storyboarded out for him by Frank Miller.

I can see how this can be effective on bigger productions, or more commercial things. Plus if you've actually got a crew, it helps to solidify your vision for the project. I say if it works for you, all the better!

Yeah , probably better for bigger but even for solo it seems like it would be good to keep the vision fresh in the minds eye..if you know what I am getting at

I'm with you there, done it more than once and hated it each time. Saying that it's still more fun than doing a shot list *shudder* They don't even have pictures The only piece of advice I can give is this. If you are storyboarding something longer than 5 mins make sure you have someone doing it with you who loves it.

I'm with you guys, my storyboard is in my head and that can change as I go along.
