colorscript
n.— «Colorscripts are horizontal scene panels produced in a variety of mediums, from marker to pastel to paint and collage, which convey the animator’s vision for lighting, mood, and even costumes for a particular scene. In their most succinct form, colorscripts serve as a shorthand version of the entire film in a single board.» —“Pixar: 20 Years Of Animation Illustrates Marriage Of Traditional Artistry With Technical Advances” DesignerToday Dec. 14, 2005.
