Anyone looking for an animated storyboard solution for Adobe After Effects to streamline the creation of animated storyboards
About Prolost Boardo
Streamline the process of creating an animated storyboard, or board-o-matic, in Adobe After Effects. Includes three presets: Prolost Boardo, Prolost Oscillate, and Prolost Fader. Easily animate basic pan, tilt, zoom, and dutching camera moves, without using any keyframes. Your animation updates automatically when you change the layer's duration. Use Layer Markers to easily control when the camera moves start and stop. Add life to your storyboards with customizable camera shake. Choose from a library of realistic motions, or dial in your own. Use any images for your storyboards, or draw them on your iPad using free templates. Automatically cross-dissolve between shots by overlapping them in the timeline. Prolost Oscillate automates opacity animations for cycling between drawings. Prolost Fader makes quick work of transitioning between frames to create simple animation. Vary the Camera Shake amount over the length of the shot.

Camera-Storyboard
Camera-Storyboard is an interactive scene layout tool for planning photo and video shoots. It works equally well for photography, videography and film. This application was designed by a professional car photographer based on his own production experiences. Start with a birds-eye view of the shoot location. That might be from Google Earth, a satellite image, a digitized architectural drawing, an artist's rendering or even a photo of a sketch you've made. In Camera-Storyboard, create a new document based on that image and add scene objects such as suns, subjects, people and lighting packages— right on top of the original image! Drag the objects around and scale and rotate them into position. You now have a visual plan for your shoot. If you use a sun position app, you can include sun positions for the entire day in the same document! Landscape photographers can lay out proposed shots along with sun positions and times.

Directors Can't Draw
Directors Can’t Draw (DCD) is a visual storyboarding and previsualization workspace for filmmakers. Users can create boards by drawing in a web browser, uploading images, or using AI-assisted tools to develop visual ideas. The workspace includes tools to refine rough sketches, explore alternate camera angles, adjust selected elements, and plan camera placement, lenses, and character blocking in a 3D environment. Users can organize shots into sequences and create animatics with adjustable timing, sound, and recorded voiceovers in a timeline. DCD is designed for directors, cinematographers, storyboard artists, and production teams who need to communicate shot concepts and plan scenes before filming.
