About storyboard template
Plan your shots before you film. Panels sit at the aspect ratio you shoot in, evenly spaced, with a caption ruling under each frame for action and dialogue notes. Set the number of columns and the frame ratio.
Panels are drawn at the aspect ratio you actually shoot — 16:9 for video, 4:3 or square for other formats — and spaced evenly with a ruled caption area under each frame for action and dialogue notes. Planning shots on paper first saves time and reshoots later.
Set the number of columns per row to control frame size: fewer, larger panels for detailed boards; more, smaller ones for a quick beat sheet.

Common questions

Printing at the right size
Every sheet is drawn in real units, so it prints true to size as long as you print at 100%. In the print dialog, set the scale to 100% and turn off “Fit to page” or “Shrink oversized pages” — then a 5 mm square really measures 5 mm. Download a vector SVG to edit later, a PNG at up to 600 dpi, or a ready-to-print PDF. Everything is generated in your browser, nothing is uploaded, and every sheet is free to print for personal, classroom and commercial use. See the guide to printing at true size or the FAQ for more.
