Storyboard art
Storyboard art is a way of graphically interpreting a script for a movie or an advert in a representational way for the production team to use as direction for their shots.
I enjoy doing them as they require a different approach to drawing than the style I usually employ.

Joy – I’ve finally gotten to draw stuff in the Aardman style!
