Storyboard tutorial

During class, I was given a task to break up a synopsis into no more than 20 shots. The synopsis was East London, 3pm, a man chain-smokes as he sits at his home PC. he copies confidential computer files and plans to a CD. He packages them and is seen posting them. I was required to identify each shot under external/internal, shot type, action and shot description. After this tutorial, I learned that a single sequence can have a variety of shot types, actions and descriptions to develop and emphasis a sequence.
