“Thursday saw the publication of an Apple patent application, ‘Script-Integrated Storyboards,'” Claburn reports.
“Storyboards, a sequence of illustrated scenes, are used in film and video production to visualize the placement of equipment and talent. This helps control costs and allows the director to communicate his or her interpretation of the script. For many large-budget film productions, storyboards are as indispensable as blueprints are for complex construction projects,” Claburn reports.
“While Apple has promoted storyboarding with its own applications — Final Cut Pro, Pages, iMovie, and Keynote — and those offered by third parties — Illustrator, Toon Boom, and StoryBoard Artist — it now appears that the company wants to deliver something more comprehensive, or perhaps better integrated with its products,” Claburn reports.
