Animatics

How do I create an animatic?

1. photograph (or draw) storyboard frames
(2.) if drawn, take individual photos of each frame (not needed if you took photos rather than drawn frames)
3. upload the photos to the computer
4. import the photos into the editing programme
5. drop each image onto the timeline and cut to the required length
6. put music or other sound on the audio timeline (you can also do a voiceover where you explain your ideas for the film and discuss camerawork, editing, mise-en-scene and sound)
7. add titles or effects/transitions as required
8. export and upload to youtube or vimeo
9. enter the link on the blog or upload the video directly

Here is an example of a drawn animatic:
