About:
Wonder Unit Storyboarder is a free, open-source tool for creating animated storyboards with remarkable speed and ease. It allows artists to visualize scenes using simple drawing tools, including a unique 'stick figure' mode for rapid blocking of shots. The software provides advanced features like an integrated 2D/3D character poser and a shot generator, streamlining the pre-production workflow for filmmakers and animators.

Rapid drawing and stick figure posing for quick story blocking
Integrated 3D character poser and shot generator for staging scenes
Non-linear timeline and storyboard editor with audio support
Open-source and cross-platform (macOS, Windows, Linux)
