Storyboards and pencils
I replied to another thread to answer this question, but I'm not sure how to cite another thread, so I'll repost it here...
On the subject of the #3 pencil, we were planning on non-pencil (computer-generated) storyboard. So I wrote to Autodesk to ask them if they really meant ONLY #3 pencil, or if that meant "if you use pencil, make sure it's #3 or darker" (for reproduction). Autodesk promptly replied:

Hello Mike,
You are totally correct: *if* you do your storyboard in pencil it should be #3 or darker. The idea is that it be reproducible. Dark marker sketches or printouts from a computer/web storyboard are both acceptable.
Looking forward to seeing your entry. Best of luck.

It may have been obvious to others, but we had a discussion on the team as to whether it was really required to be in pencil or not. The answer is "not".
