storyboard_template_16x9

Above is the storyboard template for your assignment.  I realize that there are a total of 18 spaces on 2 pages but you only have to do 16.

Remember to title each page with the show name, season, and episode title.  If it is a film the title will do.

On your storyboards you need to draw the people as well as some context for where they are.  (simple backgrounds)

Also you can write a short description in the space below the frame itself that is what that space is there for.

As we are moving forward with technology integration I have decided that printers seem to be a hassle of the past.  so instead of printing or handwriting I am going to have written work turned in via Google Docs with the use of your Warriorlife account.  If you already have a password hat is awesome, if not I will have them for you next week when everyone has schedules sorted out.
