The Storyboard template is a ready-made board for planning a video or film shot by shot, with a grid of frames for sketches or reference images, action captions, and shot notes on Storyflow's infinite canvas.
About this template
The Storyboard template gives you a ready-made shot-by-shot layout on Storyflow's infinite canvas, so you can plan a video, film, ad, or animation visually instead of starting from an empty page. Each frame holds a sketch or reference image, a caption for the action, and notes for camera, audio, and timing. Because it lives on the canvas, you can drag frames into order, drop in reference links and stills, and keep the whole sequence in one view.
It is built for filmmakers, directors, video creators, animators, advertising and marketing teams, YouTubers, and students who need to see a sequence before they shoot it. Solo creators get a fast way to block out scenes, and teams can invite collaborators to comment and revise together.
On the board you get a grid of storyboard frames with image areas, action descriptions, and shot detail fields, plus space for a logline, a reference moodboard, and a running shot list. The AI assistant can read your active board to help you describe shots, tighten scene order, and turn a script idea into frame notes as you work.
