5.1 Course Conclusion and Main Points
Welcome back to Storyboarding and Sketchbook Pro, this is Robert Marzulo. We'll now cover chapter 5.1, concluding the course and going over the main points. Okay, so I'm hoping that by now you have a firm understanding of what Sketchbook Pro can do for you to create better storyboards. Maybe you're someone that's getting into storyboarding, or maybe you're already a storyboard artist and you're just looking for a new software to help you yield better results. Either way, this software is a very powerful program that can help you do that. I'm hoping that this course has taught you some techniques and opened your mind up to a few different ways that you could accomplish things in storyboarding. But always remember that storyboarding itself is just another form of storytelling. And oftentimes the trickiest parts are gonna be conveying emotion and expressing a certain idea within those storyboards. You've got all different tricky scenarios ahead of you. Camera angles, drawing everything from a toaster to a semi-truck, drawing every type of person from every type of background, doing every imaginable thing. So you basically just have to get in there and do it and be inventive, think of new ways to approach each scene, and think of ways to become inspired to draw those scenes. A lot of times you'll have to read through the script a couple times to get the old brain box moving, and then you start seeing the pictures a little bit more clear in your mind. And, one thing I always remember to do is scribble when you're really trying to work out the process. Scribble those thumbnails and keep them very loose, and only tighten up those lines once you really have a vision for what you're trying to do. So start practicing every type of scene that you can think of. Look at some movies and some commercials that you think were really well done and then try to dissect them and break them down. Draw them with your own perception, interchange the characters, make some alterations to them. And you'll start to get a better understanding of why things work the way they do and what things work well for certain reasons. Once you start to understand that, then you'll be able to start coming up with your own inventive ideas on how to do things, so that's really important. So good luck on using SketchBook Pro to help you create better storyboard frames. It's been my pleasure to be your instructor for this course, so I thank you for watching.
