Storypencil#
Storypencil is an add-on that adds tools to help the storyboarding workflow using the video sequencer. It adds many features to help adding, editing and rendering linked scenes.
激活#
打开Blender，进入“编辑”菜单，“偏好设置”，然后是“插件”。
搜索“Storypencil”，然后激活该插件。
描述#
After activating the add-on, it will place buttons on the video sequencer header to control the linked Scenes Strips: Edit, New and Render.
In the video Sequencer sidebar you will find a Storypencil tab with all the Settings for the add-on.
用法#
With the 2D Animation Template in Draw Mode, you can use the menu located in the and the add-on will take care to set up all the general settings and create the work-spaces and Scenes needed for the storyboard session.
Use the main buttons on the video sequencer header to add, edit and render Scene Strips.
新建#
Add a new Scene Strip to the active channel based on the Base Scene selected in the add-on settings. The name of the new Scene Strip will use the prefix and suffix established on the settings.
编辑#
Opens the linked source scene under the timeline cursor in the video sequencer. There are two modes for editing source scenes, you can select the mode under Edit Scenes section in the Stoypencil panel.
新窗口 模式#
Storypencil will open the source scene in a new window keeping their timelines synchronized. When you finish editing the source scene you can close the opened window or keep it opened and control the timeline in the video sequencer to change to another scene.
This method is best suited when using multiple monitors.
切换 模式#
Storypencil will open the source scene switching to the proper Workspace at the same video sequencer cursor position. When you finish editing the source scene you can return to the video Sequencer using the Back button on the Dope Sheet header in the source scene Workspace.
Stoypencil will also temporarily copy the audio from the video sequencer edit to the source scene. This makes it easy to work on the scene with the audio in sync and without having to go back to the video sequencer each time.
This method is best suited when using only one monitor.
Important
There is still a known issue when the Add-on is used together with a scene pinned to a workspace. Synchronization between scenes may fail.
渲染#
Render all or only selected scene strips, depending on the Add-on Render Strips settings.
