What is a "storyboard"?
A storyboard is a visual tool used in film, television, and animation that consists of a series of illustrated panels or sketches arranged in sequence. Each panel represents a key scene or moment in the story, showing how the action will unfold and what the camera angles or shots will be. Storyboards help directors, writers, and production teams plan and visualize the narrative, ensuring that all elements of the production align with the intended storyline and flow.
