Back in 1978, a young Steven Spielberg talked about his approach to storyboarding. At the time, he drew all the original storyboards for his films, like Jaws and Close Encounters of the Third Kind using stick figures and had professional artists finish them up.
This allowed him to control the concept and compositions. He talked about his staff illustrator George Jensen (Close Encounters of the Third Kind, Terminator 2: Judgement Day, Dune) and how they worked together. He even talks about an ending for Close Encounters that he had to cut because of time.
