Topic 3--Lesson IV--Giving your Storyboard Pizzazz
In our last part of this unit, we will give our storyboard some Pizzazz. But what does that mean? We are going to add voice to our storyboard. Voice is an element that gives life to your script. Each person’s voice is unique; it is a gift that is used to connect with our friends and families. When we use our voice to record our story, we are reaching out to all those people who will view our storyboard. The words of your script will communicate some of the information we want our audience to know, but we also communicate our feelings through the sound of our voice. We will let the audience see a part of our personality, and because of that the audience connects with us and what we have to say more easily.
There are many people that don’t like the way their voice sounds when it’s recorded. Though, one of the requirements of creating a powerful storyboard is to use the gift of your voice to connect with people that will view the story. When recording your story, it’s helpful to remember that your story, your message and your perspective is really important for other people to understand your world.
You can also think of the images and music as part of your voice. The audience will learn about your experiences by hearing what you have to say. It is very important to choose images and music that add to the meaning of your story and send the message you want your story to convey. Be sure that you are careful about selecting images and music because you don't want to contradict your message of what you are trying to say.
