Introduction

🗒️ Whippet Overview


DRAW. SHOOT. EDIT. FASTER.

Whippet is designed to help artists work faster in Blender. Whippet is built on top of Blender 5.0's Story Tools update helping manage and speed up the native workflows to produce Storyboards and Previs. Whether you are professional Storyboard artist, Previs artist or an Independent Filmmaker; Whippet offers simplicity, flexibility, intuitive features and workflow enhancements.

🖌️ Grease Pencil Tools

Custom shortcuts help speed up the drawing process. Grease Pencil keyframes are synchronized with Cameras and Strips, so there's less time managing and more time drawing.

✂️ Editing Tools

Choose how to work with either intuitive playblasts or scene strip workflows that let you quickly edit an animatic in a VSE workspace. Export stills and reference images for 2D programs too.

🔢 Versions


Whippet works with Blender 4.5 and Blender 5.0+. The version for Blender 4.5 is no longer supported and receiving updates. I recommend moving on to Blender 5.0 which introduced the new Story Tools update which offers more versatility and features in the long run.

Please note: You need Apple Silicon chips to use Blender 5.0 on Mac
