Storyboards are graphic organizers that visualize scenes in movies or games in a form of illustrations or images displayed in sequence for the purpose of pre-visualize a motion picture or game. Storyboarding was developed at the Walt Disney Studio during the early 1930's, after several years of similar processing being in use at Walt Disney and other animation studios.

Storyboards are created in multiple steps, they can either be made digitally on a computer or hand drawn. The main characteristics of a storyboard are:
Viualize the storytelling.
Focus the story and the timing in several key frames, which is very important in animation.
Define the technical parameters: description of the motion, the camera, and the lighting etc.
The first thing to do is to create or download a storyboard template, These look much like a blank comic strip , with space for comments and dialogue. Then sketch a thumbnail, some directors sketch thumbnails directly in the script margins. However most filmmakers rely heavily on the storyboarding process.
There are four different storyboard layouts, each of the storyboard layouts targets specific multimedia products. The different types consist of:
Linear,
Hierarchical
Non-Linear
Combination
