Productions often say that they can't afford
storyboards. I wonder how they can afford not
to! The director and department heads have
mountains of tasks to accomplish, people to
manage and thousands of questions to answer.
Having complete storyboards facilitates all
those tasks. A picture is worth a thousand
words; a thousand storyboards solve a million
problems. Having a concrete, visual means of
communicating a vision to the people responsible
for executing that vision is invaluable.
