FAQs

Can I use this online storyboard maker for short films if I only have an idea?
Yes. You can start from a simple concept and generate a structured, shot-by-shot storyboard you can refine. As your story evolves, you can iterate on individual scenes and shots without rebuilding everything.
Can I paste an existing script to create a storyboard?
Yes. Drop in your script and CinemaDrop can turn it into a shot-based storyboard you can review and adjust. This helps you quickly see pacing, coverage, and key beats as a visual plan.
How do I keep characters consistent across storyboard frames?
Use previous generations as references to carry identity forward from shot to shot. You can also create reusable Elements for characters and locations to keep visual traits, style, and continuity steady across the sequence.
What’s the difference between fast storyboarding and higher consistency?
Fast storyboarding is designed for speed so you can explore options and iterate. Higher-consistency generation is better for final passes when you want a tighter lock on character identity and a more uniform look across shots.
Can I generate video that matches my storyboard?
Yes. You can generate video from each shot description and keep it aligned to the planned framing and tone. You can also use storyboard images as anchors to guide motion from one moment to the next.
Can I revise one shot without redoing the whole storyboard?
Yes. Storyboards are shot-based, so you can iterate on a single frame or moment while keeping the surrounding sequence intact. This makes it easier to polish specific beats without disrupting your overall plan.
Can I keep the same voice for a character across the short film?
Yes. Assign a voice to a character Element and reuse it for dialogue across scenes. This helps keep performance and tone consistent as the story moves from shot to shot.
