Stu1 ASM1 RMIT Storyboard Experiment
I did it with my tablet; I’m a bit of an OCD person, so it took a while to edit this.

Generally, I have not seen Zootopia 2 before (I chose this film randomly just for storyboard making experiment), but I had seen season 1 of this in the past, so I tried to guess the meaning in each scene lol. From my understanding, these 12 frames are the meeting for welcoming the new members (2 main characters) in the police office.
Overall, the director intended to use a lot of framing techniques (from close, medium, to high angle) to show different emotions, members, and sizes. Moreover, there was a small thing that I quite like from the frames 5 to 9, I have researched for a while and found this page (sorry it does not have an English version TT), the legend ‘elephant scares mouse’ had raised in the past 77 CE (Common Era) from Pliny the Elder along with Aristotle (perhaps the most influential scholars of ancient times). I have not gone through the whole film, but I like the director’s idea of adding some small details to remind viewers about things in the past.
