SCENE 01 / STORYBOARDING
Professional Storyboarding Services
Expert visual storytelling through detailed storyboards for all production types.
Storyboarding turns scripts into visual panels in sequence. Each panel shows camera angles, framing, character blocking, and scene changes. For shoots at Steiner Studios and Silvercup Studios, and on location across all five boroughs, these shot plans are key for talks between directors, cinematographers, and VFX teams. They make the creative intent clear before cameras roll.
We connect you with pro storyboard artists across Manhattan and Brooklyn. They turn your script and the director's vision into clear, detailed visual sequences. Our team sets the storyboarding timelines and revision cycles, so your boards are done and OK'd before production starts in New York.

On Location
Visual planning rooted in NYC's illustration, comics, and editorial heritage
Storyboarding in New York draws on a drawing culture shaped by the city's art schools, among them Cooper Union, the School of Visual Arts, Parsons, and Pratt. It also draws on a comics tradition that placed Marvel and DC headquarters in Manhattan. That tradition fed sequential-art thinking into the edit pages of The New Yorker, the fashion-magazine art rooms, and the ad agencies along Madison Avenue and in DUMBO.
Our roster of artists works out of studios across SoHo, Williamsburg, Long Island City, and Greenpoint. They bring credits on theatrical features at Steiner Studios, episodic series at Kaufman Astoria and Silvercup, commercials through the Brooklyn agency scene, and music videos cut around Hell's Kitchen and the Lower East Side. Styles span rough thumbnail blocking, fully rendered colour boards, animated previs sequences, and tech boards marked for lens, camera move, and timing.
Each job opens with a script breakdown call. That call locks the visual feel, aspect ratio, and the shot count your schedule allows. Artists move from a thumbnail pass to OK'd boards across named revision rounds. They work in Storyboard Pro, Procreate, or hand-drawn pipelines, and deliver PDF decks, sequenced PNG frames, and Premiere-ready animatics. Remote productions can review boards through cloud platforms. Local shoots get on-call presence during prep at Steiner Studios in the Brooklyn Navy Yard, York Studios in the Bronx, or the stage complex at Broadway Stages in Greenpoint. Rush turnarounds of forty-eight hours support the agency commercial cycle. Action or VFX sequences ship with shot-list spreadsheets that line up with the AD's stripboard and with the records needed for New York State Film Tax Credit qualifying-spend files.
