Storyboards and previs: plan before you produce

Storyboards and previsualisation let you see a project before it is produced. They are essential tools for testing framing, pacing, continuity and technical feasibility, sharing a common vision between direction, production and creative departments.

Storyboards turn the script into essential images. Previs adds timing, camera movements and initial spatial guidance, making it particularly useful for animation, visual effects and complex scenes.

This stage creates room to experiment while changes are still inexpensive. Pixel Cartoon integrates storyboards, animatics and previs into production to identify the best solutions early and begin filming or animation with clear goals. Planning ahead means making better use of time and resources while keeping control of the story.
