FAQs

Can CinemaDrop help me plan shot types for horror storyboard from a script?
Yes. Paste an existing script or draft one with the Script Wizard, then generate a shot-by-shot storyboard to visualize the sequence. You can keep iterating on the structure as you refine tension and reveals.
How can I keep the same killer or creature consistent across multiple storyboard shots?
CinemaDrop supports continuity by reusing previous outputs as references when generating new shots. You can also create an Element for your character and attach reference images to reinforce identity across scenes. This helps keep facial features, wardrobe, and overall look aligned from frame to frame.
What if I want quick drafts first and polished frames later?
CinemaDrop offers a faster option optimized for speed and cost while you explore pacing and compositions. When you’re ready to lock the look, switch to the high-quality consistency option for stronger identity stability and more polished results. This makes it easier to move from experimentation to final-ready frames.
Can I turn my horror storyboard images into video shots?
Yes. You can generate text-to-video for a shot or use image-to-video with start and end frames from your storyboard. This lets you add controlled motion while staying faithful to your planned shot types and framing.
Does CinemaDrop support horror sound design like voices, music, and effects?
Yes. You can generate speech, music, and sound effects and attach them to individual shots in the same workspace. You can also keep dialogue performance consistent by assigning a voice to a character Element.
Can I change one scene or beat without rebuilding the whole storyboard?
Yes. You can manually edit your script or use AI-assisted rewrites on selected sections, then regenerate only the affected parts. This helps you adjust pacing or tone while keeping the rest of your shot plan intact.
How do Elements help with shot types for horror storyboard planning?
Elements are reusable assets like characters, locations, and props that anchor your world across shots. Reusing them makes it easier to maintain continuity while you experiment with different angles, distances, and staging. That way you can vary horror shot types without your visuals drifting out of the same universe.
