God save me from anyone who -doesn't- think storyboarding is crucial...even if it is only stick figures. That's like a fanfic writer submitting a manuscript without shoeboxing it and having a 3rd party edit. The results are Not Nice. The part that gets hard is trying to balance out good camera work with reasonable render demands. The real killer being the long, overarcing shot of a scene that you can use to cut closeups into and frame your dramatic flow with. Too many fanfilms seem to miss the balance; the ones that do the long, long scenes rarely get finished. The ones that do the shortscene/shortscene etc ad nauseum feel more like an arcade game (another reason I hope P Pro's nodes play nice with Vue; with some careful light matching, Poser could handle the closeups, and Vue the extended shots. Maybe. Light matching would be the make or break, and that might be beyond the apps or my abilities. But hope.....).
