Our Review: Storyboard That is a cutting edge tool for rapidly creating amazing storyboards to visually communicate in a fun and innovative way. It provides a frictionless interface that doesn’t require you to use art skills and enables you to structure your thoughts onto a storyboard of discrete actions and concepts. It is a great tool for use in class presentations and illustrations of content and concept for better understanding and for students to express their creativity.

The storyboard creator uses a familiar drag and drop interface that users of all ages can pick up in seconds. It allows you to fully customize numerous aspects of your storyboard and has an extensive and well curated library of over 325 characters, 225 scenes, and over 45,000 images in search, plus it gives you the ability to upload your own images. Students can use it like a graphic organizer to structure their work into a linear and concise story and bring their critical skills to work while breaking down thoughts into just a few cells to prioritize the right information and create a good story flow. It provides an excellent place for students to reinforce what they have learned and further their learning. They can visually recreate something learned, practice new concepts and tell a story. It makes storytelling fun through exciting stories and students love the experience of rapidly creating a storyboard that looks good and tells a story from their point of view.

Storyboard That is a deceptively simple but powerful tool. In just a few mouse clicks, you can have a great looking storyboard that clearly illustrates the players, actions and objects of a concept. It enables effective communication and collaboration through visual representation of concepts and problems.

I recommend Storyboard That to schools and businesses and to anyone who wants to create organized, interesting and interactive storyboards.
