Storyboard Documentary Tells it Like it Is

David Nethery has posted a great little documentary on the use of storyboards in animation for story development and live action filmmaking. Click on the image below to watch this thirteen-minute storyboarding movie over at http://hand-drawn-animation.blogspot.com/2009/01/art-of-storyboarding.html

This is a very insightful and surprisingly accurate film on the art, craft and importance of storyboarding. I was glad to see they mention that throwing stuff out and starting over is a big part of the creative process. It's not about pretty drawings -- it's about communication.
I had never seen this before, so I'm sure glad that David shared it on his Hand-Drawn Animation Blog. Thanks David!
