Storyboard

A scene as a sequence of pictures — frames with image, action, sound and camera, ordered per scene.

The storyboard shows a scene as a sequence of pictures before it is shot. Every frame is a picture with what happens, what can be heard and what the camera does. You see the tab with the read right for the storyboard; without scenes there are no frames yet.

1 The scenes — one scene or all scenes. 2 Each frame's image. 3 Below it action, sound and camera.

Descriptiontext
What happens — the action in the picture.
Soundtext
Dialogue, sound effects, music.
Cameratext
What the camera does — set-up, movement, cut.

You order a scene's frames by dragging or through the menu on the frame; their numbers follow the order. A frame can be deleted: its description and notes are lost, the image stays in the media pool.
