Introducing Boardfish, a Storyboard App That Doesn't Suck
Meet a new app that can help your storyboard workflow.
To quote '90s slang to describe modern tech, apps are the bomb diggity. A slew of them have been introduced to help filmmakers, which we've spoken about countless times—Cine Meter II, SMAPP, Quantify, location apps, and some personal favorites like Movie Slate, Sound Devices Wingman and FiLMiC Pro, but there has yet to emerge an effective one for professional storyboarding.
Directors like Martin Scorsese are meticulous when it comes to storyboarding shots and sequences. They're key in conceptualizing the visual cues for the cinematographer and camera. They help visual effects and previs teams, production designers, and aid ADs in creating schedules. While other storyboard apps like Storyboard Composer takes the need to draw out of your hands, Boardfish, developed by the San Francisco-based company Swordfish, is a page layout app designed—in my opinion–for more professional storyboarding.
Available only for MAC OS X 10.7+, Boardfish can assemble mood boards, UX flows, and contact sheets to allow for easy editing and customizing layouts. To be clear, Boardfish does not allow you to draw boards within the app, like Paper; rather after importing them into the app, you can add panel descriptions, rearrange, delete, or hide panels to your liking. It's a digital workflow of sorts in which you can quickly change shot sequences, like in a brainstorming session where you might ask, "What if we try an over-the-shoulder before the close-up?"
The software supports PDF exporting and gives you complete control over page size and orientation as well as panel spacing, layout, fonts, and colors. There's also support for importing logos and customizing headers and footers which is a nice feature when presenting to a client.
A free trial is available to download here. The app does have a $99 price tag which in comparison is higher than its competitors.
Features
- Drag and drop images to create boards
- Up to four captions per panel can be positioned on any side of the image
- Panels can be rearranged, deleted or hidden
- Complete control of page layout, spacing, fonts and colors
- Panel labels for panel numbers and scene/shot numbers
- Ability to import logos for title page and headers/footers
- Custom layouts can be saved into preset templates
- Export to PDF or print directly from Boardfish
- Native OSX Application

The app is only available for Mac OSX, not iOS as you state in the article. The fact they show a Macbook Pro on their home page is a clue.

Good catch, thanks!

Liz, for new apps/devices reported on NFS, it may be extremely advantageous for everyone to work w/ developers to offer a special discount to readers due to the shear attention articles like this often generate.
Something as small as a 7-day 10% discount may drive sales and promote faster adaption/try-outs.
Thanks again for posting.

Thanks for the heads up on this; I'll try it out.
FYI, it's not on Apple App Store.
Have to buy it directly: http://boardfish.io/

I recommend boords.com - very simple and quick to use

Is there an app that has some kind of character recognition so, if you start drawing a person, will recognize that you are drawing a person and place a pre-drawn graphic of a person, automatically, where you are drawing?
December 16, 2016 at 10:01AM
+1 That's a pretty cool idea.
December 19, 2016 at 5:52AM
If I could already draw well, I wouldn't need a storyboarding app.
This seems lame.

I had installed the Boardfish app in Mac OSX via Tutuapp https://tutu-app.com/download/ however every time I try to open the app it restarts my laptop. No clue what's wrong.
May 20, 2017 at 5:00AM
Just purchased Mac, this looks amazing. Will this work on older versions of Mac too? Recently i was using this with https://tutuappvip.co/tutuapp-pokemon-go-hack-apk-android-ios-download/ and it sucked.

It's restarting your laptop sounds like you have a problem in your hard drive maybe it has been corrupted.
