Board

A canvas where every piece stays editable

Drop in characters, props and backgrounds, draw over them, and move every object as its own layer. One search finds scene templates, characters, props, icons and stock photos, and everything you place stays editable, so a change is a nudge, not a redraw.

The StoryTribe canvas editor with a beach scene open and the scene's shots listed in the side panel
Generated frames in a range of art styles

Start the frame with Tribe AI

Generate a shot from a prompt or the shot's own script, right on the canvas. Pick the take you like and it lands as an image you can keep working: split it into layers, move what's in frame, and re-block without generating again.

The canvas library panel with search, theme packs and characters

A ready-made library for every scene

Search one library for scene templates, characters, props, icons and stock photos, right in the canvas toolbar. Click what you need and it lands on the canvas, scaled to your project, with every part still editable. Building a frame is picking, not importing.

The character editor with angles and hairstyles beside two characters

Characters you can pose and dress

Add a character, open the editor, and swap hairstyle, face, top, arms, legs and extras; turn the head and body to face the action. Favourite the parts you use most and they sort to the front in every project.

A director sketches arrows and movement lines over a frame on a tablet

Sketch straight onto the shot

Grab the pen and mark the frame the way a director marks a board: arrows for a push-in or a cross, dashed lines for movement, a rough sketch over anything.

The Script tab open beside the canvas with a shot's script and fields

Your script, in the side panel

Open the Script tab and the shot's lines sit next to the canvas, the same script you see in Script view, editable in place. Shot fields like size, angle and notes live in the same panel, so the words and the coverage stay in view while you compose.
