ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Storyboard

Imagine you have a very big and important story to tell, but it's hard to remember every detail when you start telling it.

Now, imagine you have a board where you can draw small pictures of each important part of your story. These pictures help you remember what you wanted to say and make sure you don't forget any important details.

This is what a storyboard is! It's like a comic strip that helps filmmakers, animators, or even writers plan out their stories. They draw small pictures or write some notes to help them visualize and organize their ideas.

Just like a comic strip helps you understand a story better by seeing the pictures, a storyboard helps you understand what the story will look like before you start making it. That way, you won't forget any important parts and everything will flow smoothly.
