What does each shot on an AI storyboard record?
Four pages list more than a picture. ScreenWeaver labels every shot with its framing and move; StoryboardHero keeps camera angle in a column beside voice-over and transitions; TrendShort gives each shot a visual-direction line; SceneMixer gives each numbered shot its own duration, framing change and action text. From 6 source pages, read 2026-09-25; no maker pays to be listed.

2For the planner
A panel shows what a shot looks like; the fields beside it say how to make it. Duration is the one most often missing, and it is the one that decides whether an episode comes out at the length it was planned. Toonkit records framing, placement and mood per cut, and Frameo adds composition and captions.
How all 24 board tools read on how the camera angle is set: set on the panel 7; move presets 3; read from the script 2; 3D camera 1; written into the shot 7; none given 4.
Silent on how the camera angle is set: OiiOii, Pippit, StoryShort and Topview Drama Studio.
