Are you interested in art, movies, or just want to try something new? Come to the library to learn all about the art of making storyboards! A storyboard is a series of drawings that visualize what shots will be needed before the crew sets out to film. Instead of a camera, we use pencils, paper, and our imagination to bring the words to life. At this program, you’ll get to learn about filmmaking, get a few drawing tips, and make some storyboards of your very own. No prior experience or skill is required! Storyboarding is about visualizing ideas, not making brilliant works of art, so there is literally zero pressure. Ages 10+, Registration is recommended–stop by the library, give us a call at 413-527-1031, or send us an email at youthdept@ewmlibrary.org.
