I have a screenplay, "Brother Obama, Sister Zodiac," written, first draft. Now, what I want to do is storyboarding. Since I am not artistic in that way, I need a good but not too expensive software.
Recommendations?

Have you tried StudioBinder.com?
Why? You're the writer. You've completed the first draft. I'm going out on a limb here by saying that it's near ready for production. But you want to storyboard the project. You're the Writer but you want to do the scene sequencing and blocking that is the Director's job. There will be lots of rewriting to do before it goes to production - do your Writer's job first. Let the Director & DP do theirs.
@Nancy Further up this lounge (more recent to your post) William J Hill has started storyboarding lessons.
What Doug is saying is attach a director.
How do u do that? Pitch? Not to sound too egotistically lazy but I am hoping that the title would be enough to entice a director and/or producer.
Research is great. Who can make your movie better than you? If you don’t have tools or skills in that area, you are wasting time with storyboard. In other words if you have adequate drawing samples. I can flush out a poster through graphics.
I wouldn't doubt that, Geno. I am working on the second draft. But, am having trouble because I've been trying to do it in revision mode. But, thanks to Doug, it occurred to me that the revision mode is NOT for a spec screenplay. Good to hear from you again!
Thank you for that, Roth. I just signed up and will check it out!
Wow! Good price, too.
I'm still trying to figure out how to pay Geno, if he's interested. LOL
Here are my new plans thanks to advice I've just received:
Restart a fundraiser. I had one going years and years ago. But, had no product. Now, I have a product.
Dear Nancy
Do you have any 3D background knowledge?
if you have you can create short previsualization for your work. I have created it for my project and it is very helpful.
I have a paint program that is 3D. Hmmm...wow! maybe....
Wow! It's even got images installed.
my recommendation is a human being....that is what it took for me
Check out StoryboardThat, it's similar to StoryboardQuick but works on more recent versions of Macs. It's $15 per month. https://www.storyboardthat.com
Geno, I'm all for you doing this if you are interested! But, I will take your advice and go to this website. As you can imagine, I don't get much support from my closest friends and my brother was murdered almost 2 years ago. People are shocked and in disbelief when they first learn the truth and I am never surprised by this anymore. I just have to set up a gofundme account which I am going to be working on today. I have to recognize that I am not able to do this alone since screenwriting takes years to learn. Yes, it is as unique as one can get. Not bragging. LOL, It's just simply the truth. Good or bad, we have put a foreign king on the American throne. Obama, himself, stated that he was from Kenya. You have my script and I think that you can see how simple it was to bring about his false identity. Oh, I have to add that I was told years ago to do a DNA test. As of yesterday, this has been done. Little steps to a much larger goal.
@DouglasWalker Yes! That's the one. I saw it about three years ago and couldn't find it again. With the other program, I feel like I would be stealing even though, I would be paying a monthly price. Plus, how can you feel creative when someone else's completed work is staring right back at you. Does this make sense?
By someone else's completed work, do you mean the pre-drawn characters and backgrounds? I don't have a problem with that at all, I can't draw and this is extremely efficient. The artists who created the characters/backgrounds were compensated for their work. But if that makes you feel uncomfortable and you can draw, there are some other storyboard programs out there that allow you to draw on them.
