1How this tool boards a script

SceneMixer's storyboard is written, not drawn: each segment is a list of numbered shots with its own duration, framing change, cast and dialogue, and no image grid sits between it and the video. Rewriting the text costs nothing and only touched segments render again; each segment renders with character sheet crops and a location plate attached. Its storyboard page does not describe taking the board out as a file.

What the storyboard comes back as: Written shot plan

Text, with numbered shots — and then real video for each segment.
