Go green with digital storyboarding
MONTREAL, CANADA: Emmy award-winning Toon Boom Animation recently announced the release of Toon Boom Storyboard Pro, digital storyboarding software for films, documentaries, gaming, advertising, and animation projects that is entirely paperless, thus saving time and money while helping to preserve the Earth’s natural resources.
“We are pleased to release such an advanced storyboarding software that will cater to content creators of all styles, being live-action or animation. As a green product, Storyboard Pro reduces significantly the need to use paper, especially at the pre-production level which involves several rounds of idea generation, corrections and approval. All can be done digitally and efficiently,” states Joan Vogelesang, president and CEO at Toon Boom.
Intended to be easy to learn and user-friendly, Storyboard Pro mimics the traditional storyboarding process digitally using a graphic tablet and pen. It offers advanced features for quality storyboarding, integrated simultaneous animatic creation and effective pre-production management. The Pro version includes:
- True WYSIWYG multi-layer drawing engine
- Total pipeline integration with AAF, CSV, PSD and PDF file format support
- Powerful animatic features with dynamic camera moves and synchronised audio files
- Flexible platforms with Windows Tablet PC and Vista, as well as Mac Intel
Toon Boom Storyboard Pro will be showcased during NAB 2007 at booth SL2622 and at MIPTV 2007, at booth C1.05. Storyboard Pro is offered at a launch special of US$799.99 (MSRP US$899.99) and is now available online at www.toonboom.com/products/storyboardpro.
