I am working on a picturebook right now.
Here is my process:
First, I made 32 page a blank storyboard template. I used InDesign to layout my pages here:


Then I created a storyboard which is a pencil sketch of how the pages of my 32 page book will look like.
It's like a comic strip where I can plan the sequence of events.
Below, a few very rough sketches for my storyboard:
More samples of page layouts:
After the storyboard, I make a small rough book dummy.
More on how to make a small rough book dummy on my next post.
