Crafting Our Stop-Motion Storyboard

What is a storyboard?

A storyboard is a bunch of boxes that you can put drawings and/or words to help with the planning process of a story.

Why is it important to complete a storyboard before starting your project?

So that you can have some idea of what you are going to do and how you are going to do it.

Our storyboard is about protecting and conserving oceans. At the start of the storyboard we see a mother taking her baby for a trip to the beach. When they reach there the camera moves underwater where you see the beautiful animals underneath. This helps the viewer get emotionally attached to the animals and when the animals get hurt they are more likely to feel empathy for that said animal. Further on we see a baby turtle and a baby human both getting stuck in plastic. The viewer will realise that they feel sad for the baby human and they can relate to the mama turtles feelings.
