Michael Sporn has posted an interesting post on his Splog(blog) about his process on using storyboards and how they fit into his animation process.
Mr. Sporn writes:
…All aspects of the film are organic; the film continues to grow and develop until it’s completed. Since mine is a small studio, I can easily oversee any aspect I want. Since I have a large part in the animation, I can even alter things at that phase. I also work with animators I trust, and I like to give those animators a large say in what they want to do.
I found this interesting in regards to how my comic book is created. I find that writing a worded script is hard for me. I am an artist first, so I think in pictures. AND I have worked on some ill fated animated projects that only can now be seen in the storyboard pictures that have been strung together in After Effects (and before, Macromedia Director).
But the experience of trying to construct a story for a film, I believe, has helped my Graphic Novel in the end. I am also grateful that in the process of trying to write, I have gotten a bit better.
