Add text to images
Add titles, supers, or labels over a frame in the Image Editor with any Google Font. Text stays an editable layer until you save, so you can restyle it as often as you like.
โ
Add weather strips
Mark sunrise, sunset, rain, or clouds right on your schedule so you can plan golden hour and dodge bad weather. Sunrise and sunset times fill in from the day's location and date, and an orange dot warns you when an exterior lands after dark or in forecast rain.
โ
Bulk-edit strips
Select many strips at once to recolor them, move them to another date, duplicate, or delete them in one go. It's the fastest way to restructure a schedule by hand.
โ
Check script runtime
Watch the estimated duration while you write to hit a 30- or 60-second cut. It estimates the finished video's running time, not reading time, and updates as you type.
โ
Customize call sheet headers
Keep only the header blocks your crew actually needs, like call times, location, weather, parking, or nearest hospital. Removed pieces can come back with their old values, so you can tailor every sheet without losing anything.
โ
Edit, don't regenerate
When you like most of a storyboard, edit the frames that need work instead of regenerating the whole board. Every image edit is added as a new version you can switch back to, while regenerating a board rewrites all of its frames.
