#x sheet

In animation this is known as an XSheet or exposure-sheet which Wikipedia defines as “...a traditional animation tool that allows an animator to organize their thinking and give instructions to the camera operator on how the animation is to be shot.”

This is from John R. Dilworth’s new short in progress “Howl If You Love Me”. You can check out fascinating, in-depth production vlogs on his YouTube channel and check this out to see my lunch with him.
