This free online taster offers a hands-on introduction to professional storyboarding techniques, techniques which are currently in demand as the animation industry continues to expand.
In this taster, taught by Escape Studios' tutor Iliana Franklin, you will learn to create a simple storyboard, and edit the images into a digital animatic with music and sound design.

Storyboarding remains an area of skills shortage in the UK, as the industry continues to expand. Many studios, such as Disney, have their development and pre-production units here in London, but outsource the actual animation overseas. Storyboard artists work closely with the director to tell the story in a fun imaginative way, taking the script and finding ways to bring the words to life.
Software
You will need to have a version of Maya and Photoshop installed on your machine if you would like to follow along live with this taster. Assets will be sent out to all guests in advance*
