Storyboarding
- Plan ahead, but expect changes. Revision is a good thing
- Sound and video can be separated
- Film "b roll"
- Watch local/national news & documentaries. Analyze their production techniques

- Always think about how visuals, animation, narration, and sound will impact your thesis and narrative. What point are you trying to make?
