I chose to draw the background within Flash, to save time having to import it and mess about with Photoshop options. It also means that I can make all the individual elements of it into separate objects within Flash so that I can copy and reuse them in other shots in the short.
If you want to have a look at the file yourself, see how it all fits together, here's the original CS6 FLA file for you to look at:

So that's the Background Layout, now I just need to draw in Joey and Sophia, and that'll be the Character Layout, and one frame of Presentation Storyboard.
