InDesign storyboard template for 1.85:1 aspect ratio, Courier 10pt on A4 horizontal

This is a modular storyboard template that you can edit with Adobe InDesign. IDML (InDesign Markup) format is compatible with all InDesign versions from CS4 to the current Creative Cloud InDesign 2023.

This storyboard template has 48 Din A4 horizontal (landscape) numbered pages. This storyboard template lets you write your treatment notes alongside your pictures. All you have to do is change the Text and Images layers in InDesign to make it your own. Fill in the title page, add your credit and project details, replace the logo with yours. Then your presentations is ready for print or screen. The text is set in the classic screenplay form type, Courier 10 points with 12,3 points leading. For images, drop your pictures in the Images layer. You can show or hide the rule of thirds layer guides in the top locked layer to help you frame your compositions.

A template is an aid, not a final document—you are free to change it to suit your specific needs. Duplicate the spreads or page you want to use. Remove unnecessary sheets. To edit the footer at once, use the Masters (black or white background).

The document grid matches the 1.85:1 aspect ratio. Pictures should align with the baseline grid. The document grid modules themselves abide by the 1.85:1 ratio exactly as they should. Which means you can build any variation on top of the initial template’s grid with ease! Now, that’s cool. The smallest module is 22,755 by 12,3 points, its height equals the document body text’s leading.

You can always hide the baseline grid and/or the document grid for clarity. (View > Grids & Guides > Show Baseline Grid & Hide Baseline Grid). You need the Courier font installed on your machine to use this template. You can also print the last three pages of the template when you need to draw storyboards in clean frames on paper.

This template will save you time and help you put together beautiful layouts.
