TAC Scene Board

A free storyboard builder for AI filmmaking.

Every film on this channel is planned in it. Each scene holds its backgrounds, characters and assets next to the prompt for the shot, so you can see the whole story before you generate a single clip. When a shot is ready, one click copies the prompt and a numbered list of its pictures, ready to paste into your image or video generator.

TAC Scene Board: a list of scenes on the left, the open scene with its main picture, notes and prompt in the middle, a library of backgrounds and characters on the right, and an Unsorted tray along the bottom.
The Alien Planet episode, part-way through planning.

Scenes and shots

Scene 1, 1a, 1b, 1c... as many parts as a scene needs. Each has a main picture, notes and the prompt for the generator.

A library you reuse

Backgrounds, Assets and Characters tabs, plus your own areas (Creatures, Props, Ships). Click a picture and it drops into the open scene.

Straight into the generator

"Copy prompt + pictures" writes the prompt with every picture numbered and labelled (@Image 1 background, @Image 2 character...), and "Copy pictures" pastes the files in the same order.

Your files stay put

It links to pictures where they already are. It never copies, moves, renames or deletes them. Undo, autosave and a backup of every board are built in.

Getting started

  1. Unzip the download anywhere and double-click TAC Scene Board.exe. There is nothing to install.
  2. Drop your pictures into the Unsorted tray: files, whole folders, or pictures dragged out of a web page.
  3. Sort them onto scenes, parts and library tabs, and write the prompt for each shot.
  4. Copy prompt + pictures and paste into your generator.

The full guide is built into the program: press Help at the top right, or F1. It opens by itself the first time you start Scene Board.

Scene Board is free because the episodes already paid for it. If it helps your films and you'd like more tools like it, that's what Ko-fi is for.
