TBO

TBO is an application aiming at making easy to create quick comics (a bit like comic life [3] which used to be bundled with Mac OS), it works by using vector objects you drag on the canvas and maybe edit a bit and then put some text on it.

celtx it is a "free" (not open source) software to create preproduction material for movies. It has an interface close to what I was thinking for CBS.
