The official Watchmen movie blog posts up some storyboards and an insight into how they – along with the original graphic novel – are used to help create the film:
“Storyboards play a vital part in my process long before I start sharing them with my team. I’ve always storyboarded my commercials and movies. It is a key part of my process for envisioning the entire film from beginning to end. In addition to using that drawing time to figure out blocking and action, it is also when I can begin to get a sense of whether the dialog and pacing are working.”
