It’s a [notebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/paper-pro-move), with each page laid out like a [storyboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rubbrband). There’s a box at the top and space for extra notes underneath. This is a more economical take on the classics like [Moleskine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/moleskine-x-blackpink), which is awesome but also awfully expensive. At only $15 for a pack of 5 books, the Storyboard Book is a great gift for the doodlers in your life. It’s also a great gift for you, if you happen to be that doodler. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.2/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 18% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Affordable Storyboard Notebooks:** Disruptive innovation: Develop a line of affordable storyboard notebooks for creative professionals and artists who want to document their ideas like a movie. - **Simplifying Classic Notebooks:** Disruptive innovation: Create a line of simplified, cost-effective alternatives to classic notebooks like Moleskine, making them more accessible to a wider audience. - **Creative Gift Ideas:** Disruptive innovation: Offer unique and affordable notebooks as creative gift options, appealing to individuals looking for distinctive presents for doodlers and artists. ### Where This Applies - **Stationery and Office Supplies:** Disruptive innovation: Introduce innovative notebook designs and concepts to the stationery and office supplies industry, capturing a larger market share with more affordable options. - **Creative Design and Art:** Disruptive innovation: Collaborate with artists and designers to create storyboard notebooks that cater to their specific needs, disrupting the creative design and art industry with specialized products. - **Gift and Specialty Retail:** Disruptive innovation: Create a niche market in the gift and specialty retail industry by offering unique storyboard notebooks as a distinctive and affordable gift choice. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Video Storyboard Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/storyonboards.md) - [Magnetic Whiteboard Notebooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/whiteboard-notebook.md) - [Clinical Bed Notebooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/hospital-bed-notebook.md) - [Personalized Keepsake Storybooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/my-life-in-a-book.md) - [Reusable Paper-Free Notebooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuka-book.md) - [Elegant Analog Note Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/note-taking-kit.md) - [Custom Notebook Designers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/griiid.md) - [Modular Reusable Notebooks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rocketbook-pro.md) - [Personal Portable Whiteboards](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/portable-whiteboard-1.md)
