If you’re interested in storyboarding, these are things you can do to get better: life drawing, thumbnailing from films, drawing environment.

You can’t be figuring out your drawings while you’re storyboarding. That’s gotta be automatic, and automatic only comes from hours of doing. 

Whether someone hires you or not, that’s not under your control. PRACTICING your craft is wholly under your control, and unrelated to job


Isn’t it great to know your skills will improve if you just put in the hours? Why would you not put in the hours??

Big hindrance to effective practice is feeling bummed because you’re doing it wrong. Do it for the fascination, you’ll learn more. 

There’s no wrong way to make art (unlike math, unlike science). Everything you do ‘wrong’ is the right way to do something else.
