Webb Smith
A storyboard is a graphic organizer that consists of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualizing a motion picture, animation, motion graphic or interactive media sequence. The storyboarding process, in the form it is known today, was developed at Walt Disney Productions during the early 1930s, after several years of similar processes being in use at Walt Disney and other animation studios. Origins Many large budget silent films were storyboarded, but most of this material has been lost during the reduction of the studio archives during the 1970s and 1980s.

In the biography of her father, ''The Story of Walt Disney'' (Henry Holt, 1956), Diane Disney Miller explains ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
