Our verdict on Storyboard Studio

Storyboard Studio brings screenplay writing and production planning into a web-based workspace for filmmakers. Users can write or import a script, break it into scenes and shots, add images and camera details, and organize cast, crew, shoot days, and production information. Its mix of script work and animatics suits solo filmmakers and small teams who want to plan a project from screenplay through pre-production without relying on a storyboard-only tool.

The workflow connects script import with shot planning: supported screenplay formats include PDF, Final Draft, Fountain, and text, and screenplay lines can be broken into storyboard shots. Each shot can carry camera, lens, focal length, aperture, ND filter, and movement details. Timed animatics can include dialogue and music, while PDF and CSV exports provide ways to share planning materials. Pro adds video/animatic export and cloud collaboration, alongside call sheets, gear and location reports, and a full cast and crew directory. This breadth is useful for productions that need both visual planning and organizational materials; teams looking only to sketch boards may not need the added production tools.

The Free plan costs nothing and includes watermarked PDF export and cast and crew tools, but is limited to one project and 40 shots per project. Pro is listed at INR 199 per month, INR 1,999 per year, or INR 2,999 as a one-time payment, with unlimited projects and shots and no watermark across those options. The official site says payments are temporarily unavailable, so the listed prices do not necessarily mean a subscription can currently be purchased. Email is the listed support channel, and priority support is included with Pro. Choose Storyboard Studio for screenplay-led planning and animatics; consider a narrower storyboard tool if you do not need script imports, camera metadata, or production reports.
