Could you build this?

Partial A storyboard app with a timeline and PDF export is buildable, but low-latency pen-based drawing on iPad and Android, frame-accurate video rendering, and EDL export are hard native-platform problems.

What it would actually take: Build native iPad (Swift, PencilKit) and Android apps with a shared timeline data model. Frame-accurate timing and MP4/MOV rendering require a media pipeline such as AVFoundation or FFmpeg, and EDL export needs knowledge of the editorial format. The hard part is pen latency and smooth playback on low-end tablets, which takes experienced mobile graphics and media engineers.
