No upper limits, but I suppose the minimum would be 1. I can't see how someone can draw a 40-panel storyboard for a 30-second animation.

I understand that storyboards can be sent in, but I would much prefer not doing so with ours. No one seems to quite know what a storyboard is, we reckon it is just pictures of each frame in a powerpoint presentation. Can anyone verify this?
The storyboard should be a series of picture panels that sequentially depict the general action, camera angle, miscellaneous notables (i.e. voiceover) of your animation.

Here's a quick example of one scene from my team's 2006 animation:


To submit your storyboard electronically, install and go onto FIRST @ Streamline, find the appropriate folder, and upload the storyboard file (.jpg preferable). I have only seen a few teams submit PowerPoint files last year.
