Gone are the days of cumbersome, error-prone feedback. With Comment Annotations, you can now add visual markers directly to your frames, making your feedback precise and clear.

How It Works:

  Click the annotation icon in the comment field.
• 
  Add lines and arrows to highlight exactly where changes are needed.
• 
  Attach your written comments to these visual cues.

Ideal for creative teams and client feedback, this tool ensures everyone is on the same page—literally!

Introducing a new update to our storyboard generator, designed to jumpstart your creative process and make storyboarding more efficient than ever!

What's New?

• 

  Automatic Initial Images: When you use the script generator to create a storyboard, the first four images are now automatically generated in your chosen style. No more starting from a blank page – you’ll have a ready-made foundation to build upon right away, helping you visualize your story.

• 

  Pre-Filled Prompts: To streamline the rest of your storyboarding process, the remaining frames will now come with pre-filled image prompts. This allows you to get right into creating the perfect visuals without the hassle of writing prompts from scratch. Focus on fine-tuning your storyboard and bringing your vision to life.

• 

  Credit-Free Images: The best part? These automatically created images don’t use any of your image credits. Let your creativity run wild and save your credits for when you need them most.

We believe these updates will greatly enhance your storyboarding experience, making it faster, smoother, and more enjoyable.

We're thrilled to announce the launch of our enhanced Image Generator! This update ensures significantly higher-quality images are generated on the first try. The new generator is now available to all users with AI-enabled plans.

At Boords, we believe in pushing the boundaries of creative storytelling. That's why we're thrilled to unveil our latest innovation: AI Character Guidelines.

Before, creating AI-generated storyboard frames with consistent characters was virtually impossible. Now, you can generate storyboards with consistent, recognisable characters from frame to frame.

Character Guidelines are a pioneering tool in AI-driven storyboard creation, enabling you to maintain character consistency like never before.

Character Editing

We've designed the Character Guidelines feature to be incredibly user-friendly. You don't need to be a tech wizard or learn the ins and outs of prompt engineering to use it.

A simple form guides you through character customization, and a preview image helps you see your creation come to life.

Simple Image Sequences

Create an image you like, then use that it as a "seed" for subsequent images. Small variations in your prompt can help you quickly generate several frames with the same character.

To create new variations, just select the "use image as seed" option and modify your prompt:

Switch Outfits

Different scenes call for different attire. Quickly generate character variations with different outfits so you can always be sure your character is dressed for the occasion.

While we're proud of what the Character Guidelines feature offers today, we're not stopping here. We're in beta, and we're tirelessly working to add more guidelines like shot type and character direction.

Your next great storyboard is just a few clicks away. Try the Character Guidelines feature now and bring your creative vision to life.
