FogFrames
See your story, scene by scene. A visual storyboard for Windows. Lay out the scenes of a story as picture cards, group them into chapters, keep notes and reference images with each scene, and export the storyboard as a PDF or as PNG contact sheets.

What it is for
FogFrames helps you see a story's shape. Each picture becomes a scene card that you can describe, annotate and drag into place, and scenes can be grouped into numbered chapters. When the storyboard is ready, export it as a printable PDF or as contact sheets to share or review. Your pictures stay where they are: FogFrames refers to them in place and never moves, renames, edits or deletes them. It works offline and doesn't collect or send any information.
Main features
Scenes and chapters
Picture cards grouped into automatically numbered chapters, with titles, descriptions and notes for scenes and chapters.
Primary and reference images
One primary picture per scene, shown on its card and in exports, and any number of reference images.
Arrange by dragging
Drag cards into position or onto another chapter, with Windows-style selection and batch moves.
Undo and Redo
Every change, including batch moves and imports, is one Undo step.
Safe, portable projects
A project is a single .fogframes file; saving keeps the previous version as a .bak file.
PDF storyboards and contact sheets
Letter or A4, portrait or landscape, one or six scenes per page, or PNG contact sheets in 2, 3 or 4 columns.
