Problem

Traditional storyboarding and pre-visualization rely on static 2D drawings or manual photo mockups, which are time-consuming, difficult to revise, and fail to convey camera movement, depth, or lighting. This makes it hard for filmmakers, content creators, and production teams to communicate their visual vision clearly before committing to expensive shoots or animation work.

Solution

Storyblocker provides a mobile 3D-based pre-visualization platform that lets anyone turn a story idea into a visual plan using augmented reality and artificial intelligence. Users can place characters and objects into real-world or virtual 3D environments, then control a virtual camera to adjust angles, focal lengths, and composition in real time. The app includes generative AI style transfer to change the look of a scene, and performance capture technology to pose characters naturally. This allows directors, storyboard artists, and independent creators to iterate quickly on shot lists and storyboards without needing a full production team or expensive software.

Target Audience

Primary users are filmmakers, storyboard artists, video content creators, and small production teams who need a fast, flexible way to pre-visualize scenes and shot sequences before production.
