Everything starts with the inception of an idea, a thought or a theme. After initial ideation, the artist can hunt around for ideas or information that will help to build the body of the story to be presented.

The artist needs to think about how many visuals can be covered in the estimated time. The more detailed the visuals are the more time it consumes, so an effective plot is one which is simplistic yet beautiful and has powerful visuals. A proper beginning and an end are decided so that the story can be effectively told.

Since it’s a visual art so storyboard visuals are framed in such a way that the story can be understood mostly by seeing the visuals one after another rather than depending much on sound. Being a continuous act it is ephemeral in nature, so the artist needs to plan the visual in such a way that within a few strokes on hand one visual gets changed to another and soon maintains the beauty, thereby Progressing in the story.
