Hey storyboard artists! This week's tip focuses on the art of varying shot sizes and angles to create dynamic and engaging visual storytelling.

Why Varying Shots Matter:

  • Visual Interest: A mix of shots keeps the audience engaged and prevents visual monotony.

  • Pacing: Different shot sizes can control the pace of the story, building tension or creating moments of calm.

  • Character Focus: By varying the shot size, you can focus on specific characters or elements within the scene.
