This document provides a template for storyboarding a screencast presentation. It includes prompts for eight slides covering key elements: introducing the topic, components, sourcing of raw materials, chemical changes involved, effects of sourcing and manufacturing, impacts of use and disposal, sources of information, and a personal statement. For each slide, it prompts the user to include narration/dialogue, key terms, camera motion, video/audio effects, shot duration, and transition to the next scene. The purpose is to guide the user in developing a cohesive narrative and visual story around their topic that fits within a 5 minute time frame.
1. Narration/dialogue: -Identify the key terms that need to be
on this slide
How can these terms fit into your story theme?
Explain with your audio narration that you will add as you
build a screencast
Camera motion: optional – consider short video clips
within your presentation
Video effect: optional – animations or special effects
Audio effect: Is there a way to add sound beyond your
narration – music in and out that connects us to the
product – a clip from an interview?
Shot duration: allocate time to each slide so the whole
presentation will stay in the 5 minute range
Transition to next scene: keep it interesting
