Storyboard a video project

Hello! How is everything going?

Today I would like to share with you a Storyboard that my classmates and I created. We created a storyboard which title is Finding Lily's house. We decided to create a fable because we think is a good way to teach and introduce values to the students. For this reason, we use forest animals as characters and a little girl so the students can identify with her.

The story tells us about a little girl called Lily who one day woke up in the middle in the forest. She will try to find her way back home with the help of some new friends, but she shouldn't trust everyone.

The main objective of this story, which is a kind of fable, is to teach some values to the students. They will learn that every action has a consequence. Moreover, we want to teach that if someone makes a mistake he/she should recognize it and learn from it in order not to repeat it in the future. Besides, it pursues the introduction of stories through another ICT tool. In this way, students will feel more motivated and the story will be more attractive to them.

Before I share with you our storyboard, I would like to comment briefly what is a storyboard and the tool we used. A storyboard is a kind of drawing about a video you will record later, and it consists of some drawings that represent each scene and some notes about each scene.

We created it with Storyboard That. We chose to create 6 frames or scenes in 2x3 format because is what offers the free version of this app. It is quite easy to use and understand. You can find in this app a lot of different backgrounds, characters and decoration elements that you can personalize. Generally, I like the tool but it can offer more frames for free. However, it is a good tool to storyboarding short videos which you would like to record.

This is our storyboard: Finding Lily's house.



This is just the first part of one activity because the final purpose of this storyboard is to make a short video using it. Don't worry, you will see soon the whole activity.

I hope you like our Storyboard!

See you soon!
