When you hear the word “storyboard,” you likely imagine a graphic artist or filmmaker planning out their next great visual project. But did you know storyboarding can be a valuable part of the creative writing process? In this workshop led by Central Florida Community Arts Teaching Artist Chris Hicks, learn how to better craft your stories by using a storyboard. She will guide you through using the structures of a story to elevate your writing. Not only will you learn to create engaging stories through the use of a storyboard template, you’ll also synthesize your creative ideas in artistic written formats. Plus, this collaborative workshop will offer the opportunity to connect with other writers and artists.
