To make it short... StoryLiner is BIG ! It then has been separated in 4 editions to better fit the needs of every discipline.

  

The true power of StoryLiner comes from its non-linear real-time editing environment. Starting from a scene containing an action, you create shots based on new or exiting cameras, define their time range and sort them in the order you wand them to appear in the edit. Non-linear means that shots do not have to follow the scene chronology: you can swap them, shoot the same part of the action from several points of view and even have ellipses! Then turn on the Edit Play Mode, and watch your edit directly in the 3D View.
