How can you find the perspective starting from the composition you want? That is one of the most useful tricks to know when drawing for movies and animation and an essential part of any storyboard artist toolkit! Being able to control your perspective means you are in control of the camera and the cinematography of your drawing.

ABOUT THIS CHANNEL:
There were many things I didn’t know when I first got a job in the entertainment industry. After a few years of working, I decided it was time to collect questions that I wished I asked before starting my career or wished someone told me about in college.
My dream is to improve the quality of storytelling through a valuable conversation about not only the craft but also the business of storytelling.
And this is what “The Storyteller Chronicles” is about! #storytellerchronicles

This dude needs more recognition, these tips are gold for story boarding.

These are actually so good and so helpful and I really mean it. I love how you give not only examples but also show exactly how to problem solve. I feel like this is exactly what I was looking for

It's a short but very helpful tip. It's worth getting more views! There's a lot of video about perspective, but not a lot of advice that directly helps the storyboarding. In that sense, this video was a really necessary video for me. Thank you.

@Rauschuppenviper 4 года назад

haha i loved that moment :D 4:52 and this really is a great tip! I remembered the horizon line having this effect, but i never thought about backwards constructing it from two characters or a composition i wanted. Great Stuff, thanks!

This was so helpful! It's a lot to think about and keep track of for me, so thank you for covering this! I'd love to see more videos on perspective and shot variety if you ever have the time..! I've been enjoying your videos so I subscribed!

@TheStorytellerChronicles 3 года назад

Thanks @Voltergeist, glad it was helpful. I'll come back to the topic of perspective, camera, composition and similar things for sure, as the technical aspect of boarding is as important as the theory for me. Thanks for subscribing!

@colinholloway8076 2 года назад

I have a book on perspective so that should help. When I go over it again it seems okay , just a bit rushed maybe. The article after this one talks about perspective grids so that may prove useful . It would be better if I saw you doing an actual course rather than this quick vignette. Which seems more like a marketing exercise. I am doing a course with Laura Ewing Ferrer at the moment in Domestika. One thing I would like to ask you is, do you do your boards digitally on iPad and if so what software do you use? I have Photoshop at the moment

@colinholloway8076 2 года назад

Photoshop does not seem to be made for purpose here. Not with a Wacom tablet. I suspect that something like Procreate may fit the bill with a direct user interface on the screen? Is that what you use? Or is it literally paper or cardboard?

@TheStorytellerChronicles 2 года назад

I generally use photoshop as it is what I started with at Blue Sky and I am very comfortable with it (plus it's free in my case as I have an old CS6 licence when the subscription model did not exist yet!). At work I often use Storyboard Pro too. It doesn't have the same look, but it's more functional then Photoshop for storyboarding. In photoshop a lot of people (including me) use layer comp to create different panels in the same file (you can find some videos online). I draw on a Wacom Cintiq, but I do use iPad occasionally to do thumbnails in procreate. I still finish my boards in Photoshop or Storyboard Pro, depending on the client.

@drawing3433 8 месяцев назад

I have a question, how to draw in perspective characters that one of them for example is on the ground and second is standing, and that second character just looking on that first character from above and it's one point perspective

@henadesu8319 Год назад

Where was this alk the time?

@atten9306 4 года назад

Thank you !! I've study a lot practice a lot about perspective but always endup with a boring composition and wrong placement of the height beetwen character and u anwer my probrem here , i really need this practical stuff like this , thb my issue is i can draw bg perspective and i can draw figure .. but when these two things combine become scene i'm so confuse , wich one should i draw first bg ,or character ?? Thanks your video help me a lot i'll support you content 👍👍

@TheStorytellerChronicles 4 года назад

Hi Muhammad, I find that it really depends case by case. Sometimes you want to see specific things in the bg, but at the same time the character. In that case, I rough out those two elements first in my composition and then build the scene around them with the same principles I explained in the video. I am not sure if you are doing it already, but keep the first drawing rough. That will give you room to keep improving the scene and find the right balance between characters and bg. Also, looking at live action scenes and re-draw them might be useful to train your eye. I hope this help and thank you for your support!

Hi, thanks for your videos! what brush do you use? can it be downloaded somewhere?:)

@TheStorytellerChronicles 3 года назад

It's a brush I made in Storyboard Pro 7 actually (I noticed it doesn't work in older versions though). I exported it here for you if you want to use it (it looks like a text file when you open the link, but just download it and then import the .xml brush file into Storyboard Pro 7) drive.google.com/file/d/1bNXTpneMa60Oupc_PTq7-nm0gaDmyfRu/view?usp=sharing

@danterobles4819 3 года назад

Do I need to learn the basics of perspective (1-3 point perspective and foreshortening) or entirety of it?

@TheStorytellerChronicles 3 года назад

Hi Dante, I would say that the basics are enough to be a good board artists, but of course the more you know the better. At the same time you would rarely end up making a clean drawing with perfect perspective as we are not concept artists but story artists. If I had to choose, I would rather master the fundamentals of perspective and then invest my time in also learning staging, acting, gesture drawing, strong posing rather than spending all my energy on becoming the perspective master :) and then, when you gets the basics of all these things, you can go back and learn more about each topic. I hope this answers your question!

@danterobles4819 3 года назад

@@TheStorytellerChronicles I know that camera angles/shots come hand in with perspective but how much should a storyboard artist know about camera angles/shot?

@TheStorytellerChronicles 3 года назад

@@danterobles4819 I think we need to know a lot about camera angles/shot, because the core of our job is to tell a story visually and choosing the right camera angle for the story we are trying to communicate is fundamental, in my opinion. But as always, this is just my opinion :)

@colinholloway8076 2 года назад

On reflection the information is good, just a little too rushed. After I finish my Domestika course with Laura Ewing Ferrer I might take up a course with you. Depending on cost and if you have such a course.

@TheStorytellerChronicles 2 года назад

Hi Colin, I don't have a course at the moment and I don't have plans to create one anytime soon, but I have plans to make more free youtube videos in the future. Maybe one day I will make a course too, who knows :)

@@TheStorytellerChronicles I will get back to you. I will have to revise it. I would really like to do this. Storyboarding is quite hard , but a great option . It is 1am here and I just saw your reply. I will break it down. Starting to battle with storyboarding now and I have a much needed new computer , but I don’t have the money to get it operational yet.
