JStoryboard Tools by Ian Pegler

JStoryboard Tools is an app for movie-makers to organise storyboards into logical order. Images can be viewed as a grid and can be annotated with text and linked to external files of any type. It acts as a visual, shot-by-shot database of your movie.

The software is written in JAVA and should be able to run on many platforms.

JStoryboard Tools can do all of the following:

* Enable you to organise your storyboard images in a single project folder (note:
folder not file).

* Display your storyboards as a grid of numbered images with captions, one scene
per tab.

* Swap, move and arrange storyboards on the screen.

* Associate all kinds of other information with each storyboard.

* Link external files (of any kind) to each storyboard – and open them with the default associated app.

* Print your project (or part of it) in compact form on ordinary paper or onto index
cards or print check-lists useful for shooting.

* Print storyboards ordered by physical shooting location.

* Control the look-and-feel of what you print.

* Play the storyboard images in sequence using editing effects such as fades and
dissolves.
