    A dope sheet is an animation tool used to plan out stop motion shots frame-by-frame, including the path of action, dialogue, soundtrack cues, animation, and camera instructions. For a 30-second animation filmed at 30 frames per second, 30 dope sheets would be required to storyboard each second of the film. The dope sheet examples provided show planning for shots of a beach pan, house and character movements, with instructions for camera panning, zooming, and character animation across multiple frames.

    Stop Motion Animation Pre-production Booklet

    Dope sheets
    A dope sheet is an animation tool which helps a animator organise the animation shot-byshot.
    This gives the camera operator instructions on each shot type and how many frames this will
    be used for.
    A dope sheet is usually split into 5 different sections.

    To indicate what action occurs on which frame number


    To see what action is happening in this shot.
    To see what dialogue used in this scene.
    To show what level of animation is happening.
    To give camera instructions (angle).

    For example;

    Because you will be working with video, you will be using 30fps. You will need to complete a
    dope sheet for EVERY SECOND of your animation.
    i.e, if you make a 30 second animation, you will need to complete 30 dope sheets.
    This will be a time-consuming task, but it will help you understand what will need to
    happen in each of the shots you take. The higher marks will come from a detailed and
    careful collection of dope sheets. For example, if your characters speaks, you will need to
    show the mouth forming every shape in order to look effective.
