Frequently Asked Questions

Your questions, answered

How to make storyboards online for free?

Yes! StudioBinder is free to use. StudioBinder is and will forever be free to access and use, whether you are on a Free, Teams, Education, or Enterprise account. However, there may be some additional features or content you get access to with paid subscriptions.

How to create a storyboard if you can't draw?

Not to fear, even the most artistically challenged can make a storyboard without drawing. The most common methods include sourcing images online from other projects or creating new images using AI image generators.

How to turn a story into a storyboard?

Turning a story into a storyboard is easier than you think. To begin, go through your story and isolate moments that could be represented as images. Think of a picture book where one image could carry a few lines from the story at once. 

How long should a storyboard take to draw?

This depends on you, your artistic abilities, and the time it takes to think of your images. If you're just starting on the project and you don't quite have a vision laid out in your head, it's going to take longer. If you know every shot by heart and you just want to sketch out the main ideas, it will be quicker.
