Module 5: EdTech Pitch Storyboard Template

To some, storyboarding may seem like an unnecessary step. To others, storyboarding is the essential foundation upon which entire films, presentations, or other design projects are built. The value of storyboarding lies in its systematic approach to breaking a production into manageable units. Even for smaller projects, a thoughtful storyboard can prevent mistakes and save time in the long-run.

For your EdTech Pitch, keeping within the 4 minute maximum will likely be your greatest challenge. A storyboard allows you to decide how much time to allocate to each segment of your presentation, preventing the need to cut-up the presentation through choppy edits after it’s been recorded.

The template below provides a very simple framework to organize your presentation chronologically. Starting with your opening slide, fill out a table to describe the elements that will be included as part of a scene. For example, the Audio column can include a loose script of your introduction, and the Visual column can detail what your opening slide will look like. You might even draw within the visual column rather than simply describing the images. There’s really no incorrect way to fill-out a storyboard, so long as it makes sense to you.

Note that the template only includes 10 scenes. This is an arbitrary number, so make sure to copy and paste additional scene tables if you need them. Remember, the more detailed your storyboard, the easier it will be to create and present your slides. Happy storyboarding!
