Using Storyline to storyboard projects
At last week's workshop with Charity Learning, we talked about storyboarding courses and the formats available to designers.
It doesn't matter at all how designers choose to write and storyboard ...
Hi, David: I used to do detailed Word-based storyboards (see attached), and then one day, it hit me:
"Dude, clients dig like 85% percent of the storyboard, so why am I going though all the extra time formatting, copying and pasting, etc., etc..." Sort of reminds of the aphorism about writing about music: "Writing about music is like dancing about architecture." (This quote is often attributed to Elvis Costello, but most likely is more the idea of Martin Mull (but I digress))
So now I rapid prototype, meaning, I build the key slides and activities in Storyline (VO and everything) and send to client and basically say, "Are we cool, so far?"
