FAQs

Can I create a storyboard for explainer animation from an existing script?
Yes. Paste your script and generate a storyboard organized as a sequence of shots. It’s a fast way to validate structure, pacing, and clarity before you invest in motion and audio.
What if I don’t have a script yet for my explainer?
You can start from a simple idea and use the Script Wizard to develop characters, a synopsis, an outline, and a full script. Then generate the storyboard in the same project. This keeps everything aligned from concept through visuals.
How can I keep the same character design across the entire storyboard?
Reuse previous shots as references when generating new ones to reinforce the same look. You can also create Character Elements and attach reference images to strengthen identity consistency. This is especially useful for explainers with a recurring presenter or mascot.
Is there a quick way to make rough drafts for iteration?
Yes. You can generate faster storyboard drafts to explore ideas and test messaging. When you’re ready to lock the look, switch to higher-consistency generation options when available to better preserve continuity across shots.
Can a storyboard for explainer animation become video inside CinemaDrop?
Yes. Convert shots into video with text-to-video, or create image-to-video clips using start and end frames from your storyboard. That way your motion stays faithful to the boards you approved.
Can I add narration, music, and sound effects per shot?
Yes. You can generate and attach text-to-speech, speech-to-speech, text-to-music, and sound effects to individual shots. If you assign a voice to a Character Element, you can keep narration or dialogue consistent across scenes.
Do I have to restart the whole storyboard to make changes?
No. You can refine specific images or video shots with text-based change requests, then upscale media when available for a cleaner finish. This helps you polish problem shots without disrupting the rest of the sequence.
