1How this tool boards a script

ScreenWeaver begins in a screenwriting editor and keeps its frames tied to sluglines, scenes and beats, so the board follows the script when the script moves. Shots are labelled with framing and move, a medium with a dolly-in for instance, imported references and sketches can stand in for generated frames, and video shots come out of the same workflow. Its page names PDF and Final Draft exports for the screenplay, not the board.
