Multiple Perspective Layouts
View your storyboard horizontally (Linear View), grouped by scene (Scene/Grid View), or full-screen on mobile devices.
Storyboards
The CineLog Storyboard feature is a visual extension of your Linear Shot List. It provides a dedicated workspace for planning, sequencing, and reviewing the visual composition of your production through intuitive layouts. Storyboards are not a separate set of data—they are a visual-first presentation of the exact same shot data. Every panel on the storyboard is tied 1:1 with a shot in your Linear Shot List.
Core Capabilities
Section titled “Core Capabilities”Rich Media Panels
Support for multiple image uploads per shot panel. The first image acts as the cover, with the alternatives a swipe away.
Drag-and-Drop Sequencing
Reorder shots visually. Changes immediately sync back to your Shot List.
Customizable Presentation
Using the Display Settings, deeply customize how panels render. In Grid mode, explicitly adjust the column count (1 to 10 up). In Linear mode, define the exact panel width. You can also adjust the spacing between panels globally.
Detailed Usage & Workflows
Section titled “Detailed Usage & Workflows”Uploading & Managing Content
Section titled “Uploading & Managing Content”Tap to Upload
Tap the image area of a panel to upload media. Your device’s image picker opens — photo gallery on phone, file browser on desktop — and the images upload directly to that shot.
Scrub through Sequences
If you upload multiple images to a single panel, tap near the panel’s edges to cycle through the sequence, or tap the center to open the expanded view.
Cover Image
The first image in a panel’s order is the cover shown in Grid view and included in PDF exports. Reorder a panel’s images to change which one is the cover.
Working with Views
Section titled “Working with Views”Linear View (Desktop/Tablet)
Section titled “Linear View (Desktop/Tablet)”A horizontal timeline. You can adjust the zoom to see ~2 large panels or ~4 smaller panels on screen. Linear is for reviewing the sequence — drag reordering is done in Grid view, not here.
Scene / Grid View
Section titled “Scene / Grid View”Opens a vertical grid (up to 10 columns) of your whole project’s shots, grouped by scene with markers between scenes. This provides an excellent high-level overview of your coverage, and it’s where reordering happens — long-press a card and drag it, dropping it into another scene’s section to move it there. The reorder applies to the underlying shots, so shot letters update to match.
Pro-Tips & Platform Specifics
Section titled “Pro-Tips & Platform Specifics”Mobile Phone Linear Carousel
Section titled “Mobile Phone Linear Carousel”On phones, the Linear view transforms into a full-page swipeable carousel. Swiping directly on the image area cycles through multiple images uploaded to that specific shot. Swiping on the metadata area at the bottom navigates to the next or previous shot entirely.
Double-Tap to Edit (Mobile)
Section titled “Double-Tap to Edit (Mobile)”On phones, all tappable fields require a double-tap to edit to prevent accidental changes while swiping. Tablets and Desktops rely on a single tap.
PreVis Aspect Ratios
Section titled “PreVis Aspect Ratios”Storyboard views automatically render your images in their true user-selected aspect ratio, including tall vertical formats like 9:16 (TikTok/Reels format) without cropping.
Professional PDF Export
Section titled “Professional PDF Export”Generate clean, production-ready PDF sheets directly from your storyboard views. Hit Cmd+P to configure a PDF export, with controls for aspect ratio, image fit, columns per page, page size, scene range, and spacing. Every panel renders its image together with its shot metadata.
