How many storyboards did the Infinity Train pilot have?

There was only one storyboard and a couple different versions of it. The pilot was about 8:30 minutes long. There were roughly 300 pages and 179 scenes. That adds up to about 600 storyboard panels. It sounds like a lot, and it is, but it’s much less than a regular 11 minute episode of other shows. I was brought up in Regular Show where we always kept really limited on how much we drew in any given scene. OKKO, if I were to guess, is probably much bigger. Same with Steven Universe and just about any CG show.

Basically, any show that has a bunch of cool animation in it that’s really intricate and beautiful has a ton of storyboard panels to go along with it, increasing how much their board artists end up drawing (practically keyframes sometimes).
