Impressive storyboarding software. It features a super-simple to use shot generator with virtual FK/IK rigged dummy characters. It works perfectly well with Krita instead of Photoshop as long as the default app to open PSD files is changed to Krita.

- Imports script files in Fountain and Final Draft format to automatically create all the boards.
- Export to Premiere, Final Cut, Avid, PDF, AnimGIF
- generate scenes in seconds with the improved shot generator: no drawing skills required!
