Brainstorm with the New Storyboard Component in MockFlow Board

The new Storyboard component in MockFlow Board turns your online whiteboard into a powerful visual planning workspace. You can now brainstorm narratives, map scenes, organize frames, and structure entire productions without switching tools. Whether you are planning a film, designing a product journey, or pitching a campaign concept, everything happens directly on your board.

Storyboarding Without the Workarounds

If you have ever tried creating a storyboard in a traditional whiteboard tool, you know how frustrating it can be. Teams often drag rectangles into rows, manually align sticky notes, number frames one by one, and hope nothing shifts out of place. The result may look like a storyboard, but it behaves like disconnected shapes without structure, metadata, or export capabilities.

The Storyboard component eliminates that workaround. Instead of building from loose objects, you now work inside a structured storyboard system designed specifically for visual narratives. Frames belong to scenes. Metadata is built in. Media is organized properly. Exports are production ready.

This is not a workaround. It is a purpose-built storyboarding experience inside your whiteboard.

Why Storyboarding Belongs on a Whiteboard

Most dedicated storyboarding software lives separately from your brainstorming space. You ideate in one tool, design frames in another, and track production tasks somewhere else. Every switch slows momentum and breaks creative flow.

MockFlow Board changes that completely. Your team is already using sticky notes, mind maps, flowcharts, mood boards, and freeform sketches on an infinite canvas. Now you can move from a rough idea to a structured frame-by-frame storyboard without leaving the board.

Creative thinking and production planning finally happen in one continuous workspace.

Rich Media and Structured Metadata in Every Frame

Each storyboard frame supports:

1. Cover image, video, or audio uploads directly from your media library

2. Preset metadata fields such as Duration, Dialogue Text, Camera or Shot Type, Location, Action Notes, and SFX Audio

3. Fourteen built-in shot types including Wide Shot, Close-Up, POV, Tracking, and more

4. Custom metadata fields tailored to your production workflow

This structured approach ensures your storyboard behaves like a production document, not just a visual layout.

Generate and Refine Storyboards with Mida AI

The Storyboard component becomes even more powerful with Mida, MockFlow Board’s AI co-pilot.

With Mida, you can:

1. Generate a complete storyboard from a single prompt by simply describing your story

2. Modify and expand an existing storyboard with follow-up instructions

3. Generate AI images for frames, characters, and scenes based on descriptions

4. Convert your storyboard into other MockFlow Board components such as Kanban, Gantt, or Calendar to transition from creative planning to execution

The AI prompt bar includes options like Gen Images and Brand Guide integration, giving you full control over whether visuals are generated and how they align with your defined style.

Maintain Visual Consistency with Brand Guide

The built-in Brand Guide ensures every storyboard maintains a consistent visual identity. You can define:

1. Art style such as Sketch, Realistic, Anime, Comic, Minimalist, or Watercolor

2. Color palette preferences

3. Style notes and visual references

4. Do and do not guidelines for creative direction

These settings feed directly into Mida’s AI image generation, so your visuals stay aligned with your project’s tone and aesthetic.

Import Scripts from Industry Standard Tools

If you already have a screenplay or script, importing it is simple. The Storyboard component supports:

1. Fountain files

2. Final Draft XML

3. Celtx project files

4. Plain text scripts

The parser automatically detects the format and converts scenes, dialogue, and action lines into storyboard frames. You can choose to replace your existing storyboard or merge imported scenes into your current board.

Export and Share with Production Teams

When your storyboard is complete, export options include:

1. CSV

2. JSON

3. PDF

4. Image ZIP

This makes it easy to hand off to production teams, share with stakeholders, or archive for future reference.

Built for Team Collaboration and Brainstorming

Every feature is designed for teamwork:

1. Per-frame comments with user attribution

2. Collaborator awareness so you always know who is contributing

3. Read-only mode for reviewers

4. Full undo and redo support

5. Search functionality to filter frames, characters, and scenes

6. Light and dark themes

7. Focus Mode for distraction-free editing

This makes MockFlow Board one of the most collaborative online storyboard tools available today.
