Storyboarding is the hidden language behind filmmaking and animation. It’s more than just figuring out how to shoot the shot—it’s the skeleton structure of the visual story you’re trying to tell. Storyboarding uses design, writing and visual storytelling principles that can be applied to any field requiring an audience to buy into your story.

In this Master Class webinar, Storyboard Artist Kay Carmichael will take you through storyboarding as a writer's tool, and how you can use this powerful artform as a writer, marketer, designer, creative manager or director with minimal actual drawing knowledge. You’ll even learn how to deal with perspective like a pro boarder.

You'll learn:

  • Cinematography and how to choose shots.

  • Simple drawing tricks to get you making worlds of your own.

  • The design languages of distance, scale and main characters.

  • How to make meaning and how to create narrative sequences with impact.

This Master Class is for anyone who wants to learn the ins and outs of storyboarding and would like to develop their own engaging narratives, whether for design, film, virtual reality and more.

I just signed up for a Master Class webinar—what's next?

I signed up for a Master Class webinar which aired recently, but I cannot find the recording in my email inbox. What can I do?
The email with the recording is sent automatically to all registrants. However, because it contains links, it might get blocked by your spam filters.

In case you have not received it, please search your Spam for an email from mads.soegaard@interaction-design.org received on the date of the webinar in question. If you still cannot locate it, please send an email to this very same email address and we will help you!
I missed registering for some of the Master Class webinars hosted in previous months. How can I get access to them now?
Some of our past Master Classes are available on-demand at https://www.interaction-design.org/master-classes We’re constantly working to make recent Master Classes available on demand, so you can keep checking this page for new additions!
I’m a member, but I cannot see all the Master Classes I purchased on my profile. How can I find the ones that are missing?
Many of the past Master Classes have been edited and uploaded to our platform so that our members can view them conveniently in one place.

After each Master Class broadcast, our video editors painstakingly edit, improve and enhance the quality of these recordings to give you a better experience—but this process takes time, and that’s why there’s sometimes a delay in making them available within your profile.

Until recent Master Class recordings appear in your profile, you can always playback any of the Master Classes you’ve purchased using the Zoom recording links you received after the broadcast. Can’t find these recording links? Then please email mads.soegaard@interaction-design.org for assistance.
