How to Plan Webtoon Adaptation Shots
Planning shots for webtoon adaptation is difficult because reading rhythm and viewing rhythm are not the same. Teams need to decide which panels should merge, which should expand, and where entirely new shots are needed.
Step 1: do not treat panels as shots
Panels are reading units. They are not always useful as direct shot units.
Step 2: identify emotional and information beats
Shot planning should support story progression instead of mechanically copying source structure.
Step 3: build the shot list
When shot purpose and transitions are clear, later storyboard work becomes more stable.
