I really enjoyed this course! The instructors were professionals who detailed their work in a way that really helped me. I've been storyboarding for a few years but have great new insight thanks to Chris and Christy. Loved their creative style which felt that I was in the studio with them just hanging out.

Very helpful class. The beginning was great to see how these artists approach analyzing a script and then putting shots together. Unfortunately, the class was pretty one sided as only one student asked questions when opportunities to ask these professionals was given. I am glad I spent the money on this class and plan to rewatch it after practicing.
