The Purpose Of Storyboarding

The idea of storyboarding was developed at the Walt Disney Studio during the early 1930s. Disney credited animator Webb Smith with creating the idea of drawing scenes on separate sheets of paper and pinning them up on a bulletin board to tell a story in sequence, thus creating the first storyboard (Christopher Finch, The Art of Walt Disney, Abrams, 1973). The first complete storyboards were created for the 1933 Disney short Three Little Pigs (The Story of Walt Disney, Henry Holt, 1956). According to John Canemaker, in Paper Dreams: The Art and Artists of Disney Storyboards (1999, Hyperion Press), the first storyboards at Disney evolved from comic-book like "story sketches" created in the 1920s to illustrate concepts for animated cartoon short subjects such as Plane Crazy and Steamboat Willie.

Are there any books with collections of these old storyboards? They're so masterfully done, I would treasure being able to study them.

[@austinreed7343]

Well, deleted scenes can be seen on a fair number of home releases.

[@hameley12]

Well....... ........ now I know why most films and animated movies back then had great character build up and 'Heart'. Back then the animators helped to create the characters, plot, subplot, plow-plow!, and the right camera angles. So many great films and movies! ❤ ❤ 😃

[@austinreed7343]

And it's safe to say that the films from 2022-onwards have little to no involvement from the storyboards; see also how a lot of cheap studios were almost purely scripted but also had minimal but strict storyboards that were absolutely miserable to work on. As controversial as he is, John K did a lot (alongside others) to fight off these miserable excuses for work spaces...

[@patrickharrison538]

I remember using the old pencil method of storyboarding. Thanks for sharing.

For me, this video was a walk through memory lane. After viewing this, I so much miss those days of excellency in cinema and history telling books, where my generation learnt to read, and dream upon the beauty, the goodness of life.. That lost world of innocence. Happy were we, who grew our days under the shadow of those of you, great dreamers. And the animals you gave a soul to. Adieu, all you beatifull artists, story tellers, movie directors and to all of you in this video, who gave us your best. Thank You.! I hope one day to join with each of you again, in a better world. Just like the one you created for us. Thank you Walt Disney , and each of you, fantastic men..

We never know how much people actually put into the effort of movies, some people think they just start off with their imagination. However this just helped people understand what actually goes through movies, and now I have this sudden sensation that, people don't credit the makers of the movie, they just move on. It's sad.

[@doreenpinkerton1987]

I love Lady and the Tramp! Mr. Walt Disney was amazing! What an amazing man, and the use of the story board makes total sense!

[@williamfinch9858]

I like Lady and the Tramp because it began and ended at Christmas.

"Following along" with the staging and story-developing tool of storyboarding is awesome to find out more about.🎯✏🎥🌅 Stay safe everyone!

[@shilpa-st4df]

my school told us to watch this it helps a lot thx

[@i.ntelligent]

It's sad that rustlers and businessmen get all the glory. Walt Disney really developed the use of storyboard, but the inventor of the method was a Disney's animator Webb Smith. You mentioned this in the description for the video, but in the video itself, all the glory is attributed to Disney. Smith suggested storyboarding the main scenes for Plane Crazy back in 1928, but who cares?

[@reneastle8447]

What if they didn't? What if they give the glory to everyone else? That would've been splendid.

[@escargoat8552]

Walt Disney wasn't a businessman, that would be his brother, Roy. Walt was characteristically annoyed by business and often greenlit projects that were creatively exciting but financially inadvisable.

[@L_A_R_G]

You do realize OP didn’t actually *make* the video, right?

[@MINNIEBLACK]

Walt Disney is like a dad to me becouse all his movies he has made has helped me with my spech and how to talk porley and tech me a lot of life leasons and the thure meaning of family and friends and how to wisloe

[@harpinedoodles]

Considering i do animatics and animation.. I LOVE THIS!!

[@GoSpringboksGo]

thank you for sharing this!

[@TheSunshinefee]

Beautiful video. So, in animation they use storyboarding to develop the story and characters. Didn't they write any story on paper?

[@e-cuauhtemoc]

Of course there's a script.

[@EmiTheLoomistar]

Yeah, and Hayao Miyazaki also doesn't use scripts.

[@Da.Liar-Pig]

They used storyboards to layout the animation

[@stokedcreativesfilms5986]

Terrific!

[@gamecity7265]

Now you can storyboarding in 3D space, with virtual reality

[@Da.Liar-Pig]

They still used storyboards in 3d animated films which storyboard still be a 2D

[@cretaceouswarriorzstevensager]

Taken From Lady And The Tramp Disc 2.

[@charliemullowney5864]

Thanks I may need this if I'm using quotes from the documentary for college

[@JayRaphaelJiaoInot]

Does the crew bring this storyboards on set to maybe let the director do some scene/s review before filming?

[@doreenpinkerton1987]

+Jay Raphael Jiao It sounds like it

[@JayRaphaelJiaoInot]

it sounds like your not sure with my question [no offense,really]

[@OuterDrake7000]

+Jay Raphael Jiao Inot Yeah. In the case for animation, the animators also need those storyboards as reference.

[@JayRaphaelJiaoInot]

i never thought that making movies is such a not so easy work to do,not a job for a lazy kid,most especially in making animations you really need alot of patience most especially if you innovate something in making movies like Mr.Cameron.yeah!?.....

[@loloalcubo]

alguien podría por favor pasarme la traducción de este video? muchas gracias!!!

[@arthurramirez2221]

"We trust him with our children" maybe if he was still around, can't trust Disney with them anymore sadly.

I apply it always, when it's a video or also in comic.

[@charliemullowney5864]

It's also used in eLearning and Technical Communication for creating educational resources especially open educational resources 😀.
