Six panels to a page, numbered 1 to 6, laid out two across and three down. The frames are drawn to the real aspect ratio you choose, so what you sketch in the box is what the camera sees: 16:9 for video, YouTube, film and most broadcast work, or 4:3 for older formats, tablets, slide decks and classroom animation projects.
Under every panel there are two ruled lines for the action — the shot, the camera move, what happens — and one for dialogue or voiceover. All three are backed by form fields, so you can type a script into the PDF and print a clean board, or print it empty and write in pencil next to your thumbnails. The project and scene boxes at the top are fillable too, which keeps a multi-page board in order.
Use it for commercials, short films, animatics, explainer videos, social clips, comic layouts and lesson planning. It is one page per six shots: print several, or merge your filled-in pages into a single PDF to send to a client or a crew. The frames are plain outlines with no shading, so they photocopy and scan cleanly, and the numbers under each shot keep the order clear once the pages are spread out on a table.
