If you enjoy making movies, then you need the right conceptualization software that’s easy to use and won’t take up resources on your computer. Storyboard Pro is great starter software for teachers, budding film students and animators.

A traditional storyboard resembles a comic strip with drawings based on key shots that are to occur in the film. Since filmmaking involves frequent location changes, the cameraperson should have access to a paper storyboard for quick reference at any time. The storyboard you create in Storyboard Pro can be printed in proper storyboarding format with any notes you have entered.

What separates Storyboard Pro from other basic movie making software is its ability to let users plan ahead. You can enter shot titles and descriptions for the amount of time you want them to last. Editors who are further along down the production line can see notes specifically made to them.

Storyboard Pro comes with many other different features. Templates you create can be saved and re-imported for future projects. Static images are able to be placed on the same slides as video files.

Once you’re ready to work more on your film in iMovie, Adobe After Effects, Final Cut Pro or any other video editing software, everything you created in Storyboard Pro will be easily imported in an appropriate file format.

Storyboard Pro is freeware and there is no official technical support team in place. However, the license allows users to create films in Storyboard Pro for financial gain.

If you’re a filmmaker looking for a digital storyboarding solution, you can certainly rely on Storyboard Pro for organization and readability.
