Reference Images opens here, in our list of libraries, I'll click on it, and here's a bunch of horses. And within your Great Grain Robbery folder, you'll see Reference Images, select that, and then click on Select Folder. So, if you right-click in this area here, right-click, and we're going to open a library. I don't know about you, but it's faster for me to trace a horse than to draw one from memory. Now, we have set up in here a couple reference images of horses, so let's say that we want to, in this empty panel here, we want to draw a horse. So let's go over to the right, and we see, we have these four tabs here, in your panel view, and the fourth one over is our library. Now, the fastest way to bring a photo or scan into your project as a layer is to use the library. Or maybe production gave you photos of backgrounds for the project you're working on that you want to work over.

In other words, tracing, and yes, we do trace, it does save a lot of time. Maybe you want to add a sketch, or maybe you want to import a photo to sketch over it.

Maybe you've boarded a scene on paper, and you want to import the panels into Storyboard Pro for editing or to help make an animatic, or maybe you want to include a logo or a photo into your boards. You may want to bring photos or scans into Storyboard Pro for any number of reasons.
