Storyboarding software Previs Pro has announced a new update that introduces Pose Mode, Hand Pose presets, and a series of user-requested workflow refinements to make storyboarding and scene creation “more expressive and precise”.
“This update expands how creators can shape characters and compositions – offering deeper control over body positioning, gestures and object alignment within the 3D canvas,” a press release said.
The all-new Pose Mode gives users hands-on control of character articulation, enabling adjustments to shoulders, wrists, thighs and ankles.
The feature allows for finely tuned poses that better capture performance, emotion, and physical storytelling, with Pose Mode supporting ReadyPlayerMe user-imported character models.
Accompanying this is a new Hand Pose preset tool, offering a library of predefined hand positions for quick, expressive adjustment – helping creators shape character intent and gesture without tedious set-up.
“Our community asked for more direct, intuitive control over character posing, and this release delivers exactly that,” said Ian Lynch Smith, founder of Previs Pro.
“With Pose Mode and Hand Pose presets, creators can design more dynamic, believable scenes in less time.”
Alongside Pose Mode, this release includes several practical updates designed to improve accuracy and cross-platform performance:
- Rotation angle display – shows exact rotation values on the 3D canvas for precise placement.
- Max height increase – doubles the vertical movement range for props, lights and characters from 10 to 20 metres.
- Cross-platform unlock fix – resolves purchase-sync issues between iOS and macOS.
More details are available on the Previs Pro website.
