An add-on is appreciated by the users not only for the tasks it performs but also for its usability and its ability to be smoothly integrated in a workflow. The design of the User Experience is then a key factor for its success.
Julien will revisit the UX principles on the example of StoryLiner, a production tool he developed to provide a lot of flexibility for the creation of storyboard and previz animatics in a Blender scene. He will also dive into Python code to discuss some development considerations and tips related to UI.

StoryLiner is a Blender add-on that introduces a true shot entity in Blender scenes, as well as a wide and powerful set of tools to build and edit sequences in real-time directly in the 3D context, in a non-linear way.
