Storyboard Artist Services
Visual pre-production drawing on Spain's Surrealist art legacy and one of Europe's strongest animation industries.
A storyboard artist translates a screenplay into sequential visual panels that map out camera angles, compositions, and scene blocking before filming begins. Spain's storyboard artists are shaped by a powerful visual arts tradition spanning Goya, Picasso, and Dalí, alongside one of Europe's most active animation industries. Spanish artists bring a sense of visual drama, color, and inventive composition to pre-production planning that reflects this rich cultural heritage.
NeedAFixer connects you with Spanish storyboard artists who combine artistic flair with professional production experience. Whether your project is filming in Madrid, Barcelona, Seville, the Canary Islands, or across Spain's diverse landscapes, our network provides professionals experienced in features, animation, commercials, and European co-productions supported by Spain's film tax incentives.

Storyboard artists, previs supervisors, and concept illustrators trained at ECAM, ESCAC, and U-tad for Spain's feature, prestige series, and commercial pipelines
Here is how this works in practice. Spain's storyboard-and-previs pool draws on senior illustrators and previs supervisors working out of Madrid's El Ranchito Studios (Game of Thrones VFX-Spain, Stranger Things, the Bayona slate previs). User T38, Telson. Plus independent illustrator-and-previs houses across Madrid, Barcelona, and Valencia. Tooling runs Adobe Photoshop, Procreate, Storyboard Pro by Toon Boom, FrameForge, Unreal Engine 5 (for real-time previs and virtual-production playback), Maya, ShotGrid. And the Unreal-LED-volume pipelines that Mediapro Studios Sant Joan Despí and Eyeworks Madrid have brought online for prestige-series production.
Here is the short of it. The Spanish animation custom — anchored by U-tad Madrid (Universidad Centro de Tecnología y Arte Digital), ECAM Madrid animation track, ESCAC Barcelona, Pepe School Land Barcelona. Animum Creativity Advanced School Málaga, Trazos Madrid. And the Goya-winning Spanish-animation slate (Klaus 2019 Oscar nom, Tadeo Jones franchise, Wrinkles, Buñuel in the Labyrinth of the Turtles 2018, The Apostle, Robot Dreams 2024 Cannes). Feeds a deep storyboard-illustrator talent pool with both 2D and 3D ease.
Here is the breakdown. Project work spans the Almodóvar El Deseo slate (Almodóvar's painterly previs traditions). Bayona Apaches Entertainment productions (The Orphanage, The Impossible tsunami-sequence previs, A Monster Calls, Society of the Snow Andes-crash previs). Sorogoyen Atresmedia Cine action sequences (El Reino, Las bestias). Prestige series for Mediapro Studios (Money Heist's heist-set-piece previs, La Casa de Papel Vault sequences), Bambú Producciones, Movistar+ Originals. Plus global productions shot in Spain. Game of Thrones (Dorne battles, Bárdenas Reales Dothraki sequences, Itálica Dragonpit).
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Wars Attack of the Clones, Wonder Woman 1984 Canary Islands action. And Fast & Furious 6 Tenerife vehicle sequences. Commercial previs runs for Vodafone España, Telefónica, Banco Santander, BBVA, Iberia, Mango, Zara/Inditex. And the broader Spanish-and-pan-Hispanic advertising-agency network (DDB, Ogilvy, McCann, Publicis Madrid and Barcelona). Spain's ICAA 30% rebate qualifies previs and concept-art spend, with EUR Eurozone settlement and IVA 21% VAT recovery.
