Taster days are an opportunity for prospective students to get a feel for the content of our pioneering MA in Previsualisation & Storyboarding, which returns to our High Holborn campus on 25th September 2020.
Story board & Previs artist Iliana Franklin, whose production credits include The Tale of Despereaux, will teach the class; and the taster is free.
MA in Previsualisation & Storyboarding

Previsualisation
Previsualisation, aka "Previs" is a growing part of the industry. Previz artists do what storyboard artists do - but digitally. They pre-imagine the story, bringing the digital elements to life, working closely with the director.
Storyboarding
Storyboarding is a skill that is much in demand - industry tells us that we are currently experiencing a skills shortage here in the UK, as a growing number of animation studios search for talent to bring their stories to life. The course is aimed at anyone who wants to learn storyboarding, whether for animation, live action, commercials, (or even your own personal projects).

| Blue Zoo - animation mentor |
Our MAster's degree in previs and story teaches both disciplines, allowing students to focus on two career pathways: using traditional drawings skills (storyboards), or digital skills (previs). Both disciplines have to solve many of the same problems, including shot flow, cinematography, narrative rhythm, and continuity. Both work closely with the director and editor to bring the story to life.

The course has been designed with industry in mind; industry engagement is the heart of all of our courses and students will work on a live industry brief as part of this course, which is mentored by Previs experts The Third Floor and by Blue Zoo Animation.
