{{Quote| I am Lee Wilson, and yes I did do the storyboards for Halo 1, 2, and 3. Halo 1 were all on paper like traditional movie shooting boards. Halo 2's story went through a lot of changes and so I ended up doing them in a comic panel style, since we weren't in a place to do shooting boards. Halo 3' boards I did in color to work out the lighting and inform my final cinematic lighting. By Halo: Reach, I was directing the story and cinematics, so they were mostly scribbles and notes in various notebooks. It's certainly a trip down memory lane, and I little tough to look at some of my old artwork.|Lee Wilson discussing his work on ''Halo 2'', in a comment on YouTube.{{Ref/YouTube|Id=WilsonCommentYT|KTYbSZ87Vzw|C3 SABERTOOTH - Halo Channel|HALO 1'S LOST STORY}}{{Ref/Generic|[[:File:REF YouTube Storyboards Comment.png|Lee Wilson discusses his storyboards]]|(screenshot)}}}}
When Lee Wilson started the storyboards, it was clear to him that the script was not ready for shooting boards due to the numerous script revisions at [[Bungie]]. This lead to Lee boarding up the entire cinematic script two to three times. What he opted to do was present the boards in a hybrid storyboard/comic panel style, drawing them in pen to "remove the temptation of erasing and redrawing them until they looked good to me". These boards were for simple communication, not to be displayed on a wall.{{Ref/Site|Id=H2Storyboards|URL=https://www.artstation.com/artwork/68xkw5|Site=Artstation|Page=Halo 2 storyboards|Detail=|Quote=|D=28|M=12|Y=2020}}
