Questions

What is in each image?

A contact sheet of storyboard panels for the same scene beat, six by default in a 3 by 2 grid. The three sheets are three different coverage approaches, not three versions of one drawing.

How does it keep continuity?

Wardrobe, props, the hand that holds them, light direction and screen direction are recorded before drawing and checked panel by panel. Issues are listed for your reviewer instead of being hidden.

Why are there no labels in the drawings?

Image models garble small text. Panel numbers, shot codes and movement arrows are added afterwards in an exact overlay, so they can be fixed for free.

What does a set cost?

Three PopNow image tasks, quoted together. You see the total credits and your balance first; nothing runs until you agree.
