Continuity That Feels Like One Film

FAQs

What does this professional shot list generator create?
It turns an idea or script into a storyboard organized as a sequence of shots. From that plan, you can generate images and video for individual shots and add audio like speech, music, and sound effects. The goal is a story-first workflow that stays production-ready.
Can I start from an existing script?
Yes. You can paste in a script and generate a storyboard that breaks the narrative into a clear shot sequence. This helps you evaluate pacing, coverage, and visual flow before you spend time polishing final media.
How can I keep the same character consistent across shots?
Use Elements for reusable characters and reuse prior outputs as references when generating new shots. Building an Element with strong reference images helps maintain identity across angles, expressions, and lighting changes. This keeps your storyboard feeling like one continuous film world.
Is this only for planning, or can it generate the actual footage too?
It can go beyond planning. After you’ve built the storyboard and shot sequence, you can generate video from text prompts or create image-to-video clips using chosen start and end frames. You can also generate and attach speech, music, and sound effects per shot.
What if I only have an idea and no script yet?
You can use the Script Wizard to develop an idea into a complete script through guided steps such as characters, synopsis, and outline. Then you can generate a storyboard and shot list from that script. This gives you a clear path from concept to a shot-by-shot plan.
Can I revise one shot without rebuilding the entire storyboard?
Yes. You can generate new versions of a specific shot, reference nearby shots or Elements to preserve continuity, and request targeted changes with text-based edits. When available, upscaling helps improve quality without redoing the concept or sequence.
Do I have to use one specific model for every step?
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 what fits each shot while keeping everything organized in the same studio workflow.
