NOTE: The following is based on the actual PHYSICAL time requirements to create a storyboard for TV animation. The Veteran Board Artist estimates the time that the storyboarding will actually take. If they actually read it, It might give them an understanding why they can never seem to get “those slow board artists” to turn in their storyboards on time. If you are afraid to hand it to them personally, slip it under their door. GIVE A COPY OF TV STORYBOARD TIME REQUIREMENTS to your Production Manager / Associate Producer. Don’t just complain, get a real consensus of what is happening and get them to keep track of their time as well.ģ. You will understand yourself how much you are working, and you will have physical proof to show anyone exactly what’s going on.Ģ.

I am assuming that this squeezing of the deadline screws is just as bad for the rest of the preproduction folks out there but since storyboards are my area, I cover what I know best. It was insane when they moved the deadline for 11 minutes of board from 6 to 5 weeks but 4 weeks for a finished board is NUTS. I’ve been doing TV storyboards for 25 years and this deadline thing is really getting ridiculous.
