Understanding Sun Tzu on the Art of War - Storyboards
The book Understanding Sun Tzu on the Art of War
started out as a documentary script. When the cost to produce the
documentary as written proved more than available funding, my agent and I decided to hold off on
that documentary and build a track record with a book first. The following is a
compilation of the storyboards that we used to give a flavor of the intended
documentary.
As a reader of Understanding Sun Tzu on the Art of War, you can use these storyboards as a visual supplement
as you read through the sections and chapters.
I have arranged the storyboards in chapter order and provide cues to show their
corresponding place in the book.
