FAQs

What is a six frame storyboard used for?
A six frame storyboard is a compact way to outline a complete beat or short scene with clear coverage. It helps you evaluate pacing, continuity, and whether the moment communicates before committing to longer boards. It’s ideal for iterating quickly while keeping the story readable.
Can I build a Six Frame Storyboard Template from my script?
Yes. You can start from your script text and generate a storyboard sequence, then select and refine six key shots that best represent the beat. This keeps decisions grounded in the story rather than random visuals. It also makes revisions easier when the script changes.
How do I keep the same character consistent across all six frames?
CinemaDrop supports consistency by letting you reuse previous outputs as references and by using Elements for characters and other reusable assets. Keeping the same references and Elements across the six shots helps reduce unwanted changes in face, wardrobe, and styling. This makes the sequence feel like it belongs to one continuous world.
Is there a way to iterate faster on early storyboard drafts?
Yes. You can generate initial passes quickly to explore multiple options for composition and staging. Once you choose a direction, you can refine using stronger references and more consistency-focused settings. This balances speed early with higher confidence later.
Can I turn the six storyboard frames into video?
Yes. You can generate text-to-video within the same project, or guide motion by using storyboard images as start and end frames. That approach helps preserve continuity from your plan. It’s a straightforward way to move from stills to a structured sequence.
Can each shot have its own voice and music?
Yes. CinemaDrop includes text-to-speech and text-to-music that you can attach to individual shots. This lets you tailor performance and mood per moment while keeping the overall sequence cohesive. It’s especially useful for testing timing and tone before final edits.
Do I need separate tools for storyboard, video, and audio?
No. CinemaDrop is designed as an all-in-one workspace where you can generate storyboard images, create video, and add speech, music, and sound effects shot by shot. Keeping everything in one place reduces handoffs and preserves continuity. It also makes it easier to iterate without rebuilding your sequence.
