Creating a storyboard in InDesign




There are two ways that I know of to do this

Open InDesign and File->New->Document

That should bring up this box

Now, either you can make the width at least 408p (picas) or more, OR

you can create the document as-is (single 8.5 x 11 page), add 12 Columns

so that now it looks like this



Open up the pages tab, click on the little lines icon on the upper right hand corner to bring up a menu. on the menu, uncheck "Allow Document Pages to Shuffle"



Now, reopen that menu and say "insert pages..." and put 5 after page 1.

it should look like this :


Now you're ready to drag and drop images on the pages to create your storyboard!


You're welcome to email me if you have any trouble.
