Effective video starts long before the camera rolls.
We shape your message, structure your narrative and plan each scene so your final film or animation is engaging, clear and commercially focused.
What is is Storyboarding & Script writing?
Storyboarding and scriptwriting define the structure, flow and messaging of your video or animation before production begins. The script sets the narrative, voice and pacing; the storyboard visualises each scene, showing how the story will unfold on screen.
This planning phase removes ambiguity, aligns stakeholders early and ensures that everyone — from directors to animators to subject-matter experts — is working to the same clear idea. It reduces production risks, keeps costs under control and leads to a stronger, more effective final film.
Why Storyboarding & Scripts matter
Video is one of the most powerful ways to communicate — but without planning, it can easily become unclear, unfocused, too long or too short. Storyboards and scripts give your project structure, clarity and purpose, ensuring the final outcome feels polished and intentional.
Good storyboarding and scriptwriting help you:

Why choose Herron
We’re an experienced design team with deep expertise across brand, digital and marketing — bringing big-agency capability with the accessibility of a close, collaborative partner based in Sheffield. Our work is grounded in clarity, craft and commercial understanding, shaped by years of delivering for ambitious B2B organisations.
Who We Work With
Our sweet spot is industrial and manufacturing B2B — where videos often need to explain complex products, processes or engineered systems clearly and accurately. Storyboards and scripts help ensure this technical detail is communicated effectively.
We also work with professional services firms — consultancies, financial specialists and knowledge-led organisations — where precision, clarity and tone are essential for credible video content.
“Everything’s increased since we commissioned Herron – customer enquiries, how much we export, the productivity of our staff and profit. Our website & marketing materials have never worked harder – and the sales figures prove it.”
“The service from the team at Herron has been second-to-none. We get compliments on the website all the time — it really showcases what we can do and has led to gaining new clients in the UK and overseas.”
“Having Paul and Herron on the journey with us and working collaboratively with our team has been invaluable — and hopefully we can continue that relationship going forward.”
“Today’s casting industry is modern and dynamic — we need to reflect our members as vital solution providers to global advanced manufacturing. Working with Paul and his team helped CMF overhaul the way we communicate.”
Our approach
We follow a structured, collaborative process that gives your video project clarity prior to production.
