Plot Storyboard Creator vs. VEED.IO

If you are in a creative studio that creates video in scale, then this is an excellent tool for quickly and easily creating minimal viable product storyboards for collaboration, perhaps even with non-creatives. However, if you are looking for a Story Board software with all the bells and whistles you could possibly want or with a bunch of additional features that you might need in a more cinematic context, then this tool may be too simple for your needs.

VEED is a very simple and effective platform to create podcast videos and short video clips for social media marketing and educational purposes. If you only have audio files that you want to share on social media, you can transform these audio files into video files that can be shared on social media. You can embed the caption into the video and insert a progress bar which makes the video produced high quality and very user-friendly to consume. We use VEED to give a taster to our clients and we build a library of snackable videos.

• In my experience, massively buggy - does not work in Safari
• Does not upload ProRes files in Chrome
• Does not always save work even when displaying it does
• Audio sync not locked
• In my experience, Support does not understand issues, even when carefully explained
• Timeline buggy and not consistent
• Overall, in my opinion, just not a pro product, not useful for professional post production
• In my opinion, not at all worth the $38 per month minimum plan required to be able to download subtitle .srt files

Plotagon is easy to use but the characters and animation need enhancement. Plot Generator produces great ideas and scripts but they are not unique to individual projects. With The Plot Storyboard, you have control to create an organic project with better-animated characters

I originally chose Veed over Descript for its easy interface. However, I am switching back to Descript because in my opinion the product is less glitchy and comes with better support and features.

• Creative team is able to share project briefs with clients faster.
• Non-creative collaborators are not intimidated by a complex interface.
• Pricing is affordable.

Incentivized

• Negative return on investment due to time invested in such a, in my opinion, buggy, poorly executed application
