ANIMATIC STORYBOARD

So a storyboard is a series of images laid out to


show the direction as well as a visual
representation of the visuals of each scene. An
animatic is taking those individual images and
putting them into a movie file and adding audio.
TURNING A STORYBOARD
INTO AN ANIMATIC
Taking turning storyboards into an animatic
removes a lot of the explaining that has to be
done beneath the storyboard or by someone
presenting them. An animatic speaks much more for
itself because it moves and has dialogue.

It also is a much clearer representation of what


the finished product will look like. As you work
in animation you'll often find yourself showing
works in progress to people who are unfamiliar
with the arts so they may have a hard time
imagining a completed project from rough work.
An animatic is a lot closer to the finished
product so it's easier for people to imagine how
it's going to pan out. When you're watching the
Adventure Time animatic you can imagine what you
know the characters to look like in the scenes
where they're drawing in as sketches, it's a
shorter leap for the imagination.
THE ADVANTAGE OF AN ANIMATIC
The biggest advantage to an animatic though is it
helps define the timing. As a viewer of a
storyboard, you can determine how long each scene
is by how long you look at a single picture. If
we stare at the first picture for a half hour for
some weird reason that means that first shot is a
half hour long in our interpretation of the
storyboard.
An animatic allows you to communicate super
precisely how long each shot holds for and the
timing of the entire piece. You really get across
the timing of when an action happens vs when a
camera move may happen or when a piece of
dialogue happens in relation to the action.
