storyboarded
Drew scene sequences
Storyboarded is the past tense of storyboard, meaning to plan out a visual sequence by sketching key scenes in order.
The technique originated in film and animation production, where directors map shots before filming: We storyboarded the chase scene before shooting began.
The practice has spread to advertising, video games, and any project requiring visual planning.
