Tuesday Tips --- Dynamic VS Flat staging A huge component of storyboarding is to use the camera position and angle to tell the story you want to tell (or that you're paid to tell...). No angle or position is bad by itself. But every camera choice you make influences how the story unfolds. There's a time and a place for dynamic camera angles. Maybe right in the middle of an action sequence. But there's also a place for what some may refer to as flat staging. Flat doesn't mean boring. It often brings clarity and a sense of calm to a scene, a moment for the audience to understand where things are, often used in establishing shots. A mistake junior story artists often make is to overdo the dynamic shots. They can be very powerful, but use them wisely. As always, there's exceptions to every rules. Sometimes, subverting the expectations of an audience by using an unusual camera angle can bring a sequence to life. Try and experiment! -Norm @grizandnorm #100tuesdaytipsbook #100tuesdaytips #tuesdaytips #arttips #arttutorials #DynamicVSflat
