Story boarding is used by the movies to plan out scenes.

The words of a script and a sketch of the scene are created.

Each scene is pasted on the wall.

The room where this is done is called a War Room because the military also uses Story boarding to plan its activities.

For multimedia productions, these storyboards may be created on paper or online.

They are a somewhat time-consuming method of outlining, but, in their favor, supply substantial structure and details.
