Corporate Video Storyboard Template
Create effective corporate videos
Corporate videos can be dull and often fail to get the point across in an engaging way. But with a touch of creativity and some preparation, they don't have to be.
For our guide, we'll utilize StudioBinder’s storyboard creator to demonstrate each stage. While we are demonstrating with StudioBinder, this process is adaptable to any tools you use—be it digital software or simply paper and a pen.
Step 1
1. Decide your presentation format
Think about how you want to present your storyboard. Do you prefer simple sketches in small frames, or larger frames for more detail? Where will this be viewed and who will it be presented to?
This is a step where you need to decide whether you need one, two, four, or even more panels per page.
How to do this in StudioBinder
- Switch between view types (from 1 - 4 columns).
- Hide or reveal shot specs (scene number, description, audio, video).
- Fit the image to the aspect ratio automatically.
Step 2
2. Read the scene
Use your script as a guide. Picture the scene in your mind. What’s the essence of the scene? What corporate information is being presented and how could it be visually engaging or communicated?
Decide on the types of shots to use here like close-ups or wide shots.
How to do this in StudioBinder
- Import a script, and all the scenes will be automatically turned into the blank storyboards.
- Tag each line to create a new panel in the storyboard.
Step 3
3. Create or find images
Whether you draw them, hire an artist, or use photos, get your images ready and drop them into your storyboard. Arrange them in story order to maintain the narrative and structure of your corporate video.
How to do this in StudioBinder
- Upload images quickly anywhere, including previous projects.
- Use your webcam to capture hand-drawn frames.
- Reorder the images with a simple click-and-drag.
Step 4
4. Add descriptions and annotations
If you're creating a corporate video internally or for a client, context and details will help your storyboards be understood. Add details to your images with descriptions, notes, and visual cues like arrows for movement. Describe the shot type, any special camera angles, and key actions.
How to do this in StudioBinder
- Add scene descriptions, audio information like dialogue, and video information explaining the visual.
- Quickly add arrows, text and shapes to further clarify the direction.
Step 5
5. Share and collaborate
Once your storyboard is complete, share it with your team or clients for feedback. Corporate videos have to accomplish very specific information, so it's important to be open to feedback.
How to do this in StudioBinder
- Share with a view-only link, and invite collaborators to work on this specific feature/page (not the entire project).
- Collaborate within the comments feature.
Step 6
6. Print
Finally, print your storyboard. Having a physical copy on set is invaluable for guiding the shoot and making sure every piece of information and shot is captured.
How to do this in StudioBinder
- Generate storyboard PDFs for a professional presentation.
