    how best to draw up storyboards in ae

    Posted by Anita Sancha on January 18, 2009 at 5:56 am

    Hi..

    I am trying to find a quick way to make storyboards for my animations.
    Maybe I could use paint, and draw, but I cant seem to make a layer that is transparent so that only the bottom layer is solid. and then I can animate the skribbles that I have drawn over the background. Can paint only work on a solid layer?

    Please can I have some advice on quick storyboarding in AE.

    Anita

    Thanks for all your help

    There is no quick way to create storyboards in AE which is not an art application. Build your graphics and elements in an application with which you are already familiar.

    Most character animators use AE to rough out their scenes, a process known as “animatics.” That topic can be researched in depth on the Internet.
