storyboarder
Visual sequence planner
A storyboarder creates storyboards—sequences of drawings that plan out scenes for films, animations, commercials, or video games.
The work translates scripts into visual blueprints, showing camera angles, character positions, and action flow before production begins: She worked as a storyboarder on several animated features.
