StudioBinder is a web-based storyboarding tool that is also integrated with other features that are needed for the entire pre-production process. This includes the screenplay, script breakdown, call sheets, shooting schedules, and more.
When you set out to make your storyboard, there is a lot of freedom in how you go about it. That being said, here are some basic storyboarding steps you can follow.
- Read your script and think about what shots would be best
- Start with a blank storyboard template
- Add your images (either hand-drawn or digitally created)
- Label your images with scene and shot numbers
- Include a description for each shot for context
- If there is camera or character movement, insert arrows to indicate that
- Assemble your completed storyboards in story order
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.
In the 180-degree rule, when two characters are talking, the camera must stay on the same side of that conversation. For example, if we start on Character A's right side, we can't just cut over to suddenly be on Character A's left side because that would confuse the scene's geography. So, when you're storyboarding, the same rule applies.
Storyboarding is still possible if you don't know how to draw. You can either source images from the internet that match your basic idea, or you can use an AI image generator to create brand-new images.
