What is Storyboarding?

Storyboarding is a graphical version of the series of shots shown in the music videos, it makes it easier to film at the end because we have everything on paper, it describes the location, action, camera direction, lighting. The storyboard is used to help the film director to visualise the flow of camera shots, drawing a rough storyboard is the first step a director will take in visualising script or screenplay. A storyboard makes it easier to see whether the directors ideas are going to work on screen. It helps the director to decide the sequence of shots, the movement of actors, camera directions and lighting directions. The storyboard is used as a basis for discussion between the film director and the director of photography to decide how the shots need to be acted, lit and shot. "a picture is worth a thousand words." Storyboarding is an essential process in the music video because is used before the shooting, at the production during the shooting and at the post production after shooting.
