Storyboard Pro Features

Story Flow

Go from script to storyboard in one seamless framework that allows you to visually organize the story as it unfolds – with precise timing. Reorder panels, shots and scenes by clicking and dragging. Add comments, record audio notes and make changes on the fly.
Drawing & Sketching Tools

Draw in any style using bitmap and vector drawing tools with access to multiple brushes and textures. Rotating canvas provides a better drawing experience. Onion skinning gives context of previous and next panels. Use text tool for titling.
Built-in Camera

Create movement with the built-in 3D camera with thru-the-lens view. Set start and end positions across panels to add camera moves that pan, zoom and roll in 2D or 3D space. Easily see camera safe areas (4:3 and widescreen).
Add 3D

Import 3D models from FBX, Alembic, Collada, OBJ, 3DS. Mix 2D and 3D in a 3D space where assets interact the way you expect. Position layers and 3D models anywhere you want. Animate layers and add movement with a 3D camera.
Animatics

Time your panels. Add motion per layer and create impressive camera moves across panels. Add unlimited soundtracks, cut sound, reposition, and edit volume keyframes. Create real-time transitions. All with smooth playback.
Pipeline Integration

Import scripts from Final Draft and standard image, vector and audio formats. Export layered panels to Photoshop, storyboards to PDF, still images and movies. Export animatics or send to Avid, Premiere and Final Cut Pro via AAF, EDL and XML. Export projects to Harmony for 2D animation production or FBX for 3D. Support for Flix.
Collaborate

Pitch your story to a group using Pitch Mode. Collaborate on a team by splitting your project for different team members, and merging the changes back into a master project.
Natural to Use

Get productive right away. The artist-friendly tools and intuitive layout immediately make sense and invite you to begin drawing. Brushes and other drawing tools are highly responsive and never slow your creativity down.
High Quality Visuals

Make memorable pitches. Your storyboards look super crisp with built-in support for Retina and other high pixel density displays. Playback speed is super smooth so the focus is always on your good work.
