Storyboard Pro extension

Storyboard Pro extension

The new Storyboard Pro extension introduces a true panel-by-panel workflow to Flix, eliminating the need to send entire sequences back-and-forth between the programs when only a single/small subset of panel/s needs revisions. Whether you’re working with full sequences or taking advantage of the new panel-by-panel revision workflow, working across Flix and Storyboard Pro is now smoother than ever.

A new, intuitive Shots UI

New Shots UI and roundtripping

Shots are now elevated to first-class citizens with a new UI for creating, editing, and managing them in the browser. Improved roundtripping with Storyboard Pro and Editorial keeps name, structure, and metadata intact, plus the new Shot Properties Panel centralizes key details, and full API access supports customization.

Customizable shot names

Set default naming conventions and incremental shot numbering, rename shots at any stage of production, and apply sequential renaming when finalizing timelines.

Shot export preferences

When publishing to editorial, export shot data based on user preference. Shots now return to Flix from Editorial exactly as they were exported, preserving name and structure.

Storyboard Pro roundtripping

Shots now appear as native scenes in Storyboard Pro with no extra conversion steps needed. Plus scenes from Storyboard Pro are ingested as shots in Flix and seamlessly passed through to Editorial.

Now you can tailor both the UI and UX to meet your studio’s specific needs. To help you get started, we’ve included some examples in the Public Examples Repository.

Greater clarity when ingesting sequences

New Sequence Ingest UI

From either Storyboard Pro or Editorial, the import model gives you real-time visibility at every stage. View the overall progress in the top bar, and a breakdown of live updates for each subtask.
