FAQs

What makes CinemaDrop the best storyboard software for explainer video work?
CinemaDrop is designed for a storyboard-first workflow, helping you turn an explainer script into a clear sequence of shots quickly. From there, you can generate images, video, and audio in the same workspace so the storyboard can evolve into finished media. It also emphasizes continuity with references and reusable Elements.
Can I begin with a rough idea instead of a completed script?
Yes. The guided Script Wizard helps you develop an explainer script from an initial premise, then you can generate a storyboard from that script in the same flow. This is useful when you need to explore structure and messaging before committing to production.
How does CinemaDrop keep character design consistent across shots?
You can reuse prior outputs as references when generating new storyboard frames to preserve identity and style. Elements let you define characters, locations, and props and attach reference images to strengthen consistency. This reduces unwanted changes as you iterate.
Does CinemaDrop only create storyboards, or can it generate video too?
It can generate video as well. You can create video from text prompts or use image-to-video with selected start and end frames pulled from your storyboard. That makes it easier to keep motion aligned with your planned shots.
Can I add narration, music, and sound effects for an explainer inside CinemaDrop?
Yes. CinemaDrop includes text-to-speech and speech-to-speech for voice, plus text-to-music and sound effects you can attach to individual shots. You can also assign a consistent voice to a character Element to maintain continuity across the sequence.
Do I need to use one model for everything?
No. CinemaDrop provides access to multiple third-party models across image, video, lip-sync, and audio categories, each with its own credit cost. You can choose the best fit per scene while staying in one studio workflow.
How do I refine a single shot without redoing the whole storyboard?
You can iterate on individual shots and use text-based edit flows to request targeted changes to images or video. Upscaling options (when available) help improve quality while preserving your concept. This supports quick feedback cycles without breaking the overall sequence.
