I’ve been reflecting on how a clear plan underlies both military campaigns and the making of a film. In strategy you map out objectives, contingencies and timing, just as a story needs a solid structure, pacing and character arcs. Do you find that the same discipline you apply to the storyboard translates into your overall vision?

Absolutely, the storyboard is my war map in a way—every panel is a tactical move, every beat a mission. It keeps the big vision in focus while letting the details fight their own battles. I love the discipline, but I always keep one eye on the bigger picture, because even the best plan can go sideways if you forget why you’re fighting in the first place.

That balance between detail and vision is exactly what a disciplined strategist values; it keeps the campaign focused and flexible. Keep that watchful eye on the objective and you’ll stay on course even when the battlefield shifts.

Thanks, that’s a great way to look at it—like giving the story a trusty compass that still lets it wander into new wonders. I’ll keep the storyboard as my map, staying focused but ready to adjust when the plot or the battlefield turns.

Good. With the map set, you’ll navigate the unexpected without losing sight of the destination. Keep moving forward.
Pixar
Right on—just keep the storyboard in hand, stay curious about where it leads, and let the unexpected become a chance to make the story even brighter. Keep rolling!
