Professional Filmmaking Tools · Free · Open · Browser-Based
Write the script. Build the boards. Frame the shot. Everything a filmmaker needs — in the browser, on any device, for free.
From the first line of dialogue to the final camera position — OPENSLATE covers the entire pre-production pipeline.
Industry-standard screenplay formatting — automatically. Write, and the structure follows.
Plan every shot before the camera rolls. Draw, describe, or generate your frames with AI.
Your phone becomes a professional viewfinder. Simulate lenses, frame shots, drop marks, capture references.
Professional screenwriting software costs hundreds of dollars a year. OPENWRITE doesn't. Type your story — it formats as you go, handles every element of the Hollywood standard, and exports print-ready PDFs.
A storyboard communicates the film before a frame is shot. OPENFRAME gives you a fast, flexible canvas — sketch directly, pick from compositional templates, or describe a shot in words and let AI generate the reference image.
Great directors scout locations with their eyes framed. OPENVIEW brings that discipline to any smartphone — live camera with professional guides, lens field-of-view simulation, and a reference library that persists across sessions.
