Animatics & Storyboards

A storyboard is a plan of the shots for production that usually contains a sequence of dialogue and illustrations. An animatic is an initial version of a film with there being a series of static illustrations edited together and presented in order. Dialogue or possibly a soundtrack is added to see how it flows.
