Well I am writeing a screenplay for a thriller I would like to shoot this summer. I can visuilize the whole film in my head. There is a few action sequences that I am haveing a tough time getting down and writeing. My vision of the sequences keep changeing. I was thinking of doing a few storyboards to help this out. Is there any free software I can do this. If not I am pretty fair when it comes to drawing I was wondering what paper should I use. Also what should I try to include in my storyboards that will help with my vision. I really want to get my screenplay rigt but being sort of new this kind of stuff it is kind of tough. Also I am only 14 makeing a little movie so it's nothing fancy. Thanks so much for the feedback everyone!

When I was 14 and just getting started I drew my storyboards on typing paper with a regular old pencil. I was (and am) a terrible artist so it was stick figures and arrows.

I'm sure there's software out there for this. Wow, have times changed.

Or you can get some of your friends talented in art to help you. You can't possibly go solo even at the basic stage.?:D?

I disagree with you, titanic. As I said, I'm a terrible artist and I went solo at the basic stage. My storyboards will never end up in an art book, but they did the job of developing a shot list and the pacing of a scene.

Going solo at the basic stage is a great way to learn.
