Storyboard is a classical animation tool to help the creators to organize scenes. In this paper, we propose a new method for producing animation from storyboard. The 3D position and behavior of the characters are estimated from 2D views using the constraints optimization and example based interpolation method. We also show animation examples produced from the storyboard.
