Hi everyone! I'm Sergey—a designer and visual storyteller with 20+ years of experience building digital products and creative tools. I’ve worked behind the scenes on dozens of projects, and storyboarding has always been at the heart of the process for me.
Recently, I launched StoryBoom https://www.storyboom.app/, a minimalist storyboarding app to help filmmakers and creative teams plan visual narratives more clearly and efficiently. It grew out of years of in-house use, and now I’m excited to share it with the broader community.
I'm looking forward to learning from you all, sharing a few insights, and connecting with fellow creatives!

Hi, Sergey Martinov. Welcome to the community. Stage 32 had a live Community Open House last week. You can watch the recording here (www.stage32.com/education/products/stage-32-community-open-house-webcast-1). It'll help you navigate Stage 32 and connect with creatives and industry professionals all over the world.
Stage 32 also has a blog about navigating the platform and making connections: www.stage32.com/blog/how-to-successfully-navigate-the-stage-32-platform-...
I just looked at the StoryBoom website. It looks interesting, and I've been thinking about getting storyboards made for my scripts. I'll keep StoryBoom in mind.

Hi Sergey, this is a great platform. I did sign up and it has great features. I'm not sure if you plan to update the app to include an upload of a screenplay and provide the story by scene. I'm just a visual person and I like to see the story unfold and that would help me with rewrites. I do like what you have now as well.

Hi Asmaa,
Thank you so much for the kind words and for signing up—I'm really glad to hear you’re enjoying the platform!
Yes, you're absolutely right—adding the ability to upload a screenplay and break it down by scenes is something I’m actively planning. I’m also a visual thinker, so I completely understand how valuable it is to see the story unfold. The feature is on the roadmap, and I’ll be sure to keep you posted as it takes shape.
In the meantime, if there’s anything you’d like to see or suggest, I’d love to hear it.
Thanks again for your thoughtful feedback!

Thank you Sergey. I love this app. I will try something different this coming week. I have a script I'm finishing and I will add scene by scene to see the storyboard. I will give you more feedback later this week. I like what you've done.
