FAQs

Can I use this storyboard maker for short films with an existing script?
Yes. You can paste in a script you already have and generate a storyboard sequence from it. This makes it easy to review the story as shots and adjust structure or coverage as you iterate.
How does CinemaDrop keep characters consistent across storyboard shots?
CinemaDrop supports reference-based generation and Elements. Reusing previous images as references and saving characters, locations, and props as Elements helps maintain continuity across scenes and camera angles.
Can I write the script inside CinemaDrop instead of importing one?
Yes. The Script Wizard can guide you from a premise through characters, synopsis, outline, and a full script. You can also revise manually and use AI-assisted rewrites to explore alternatives.
Can I turn storyboard images into video for my short film?
Yes. You can generate text-to-video shots, and you can also create image-to-video by selecting storyboard images as start and end frames. This helps you preview motion while staying faithful to your planned shots.
Does CinemaDrop support voice, music, and sound effects for storyboarded scenes?
Yes. You can generate speech with text-to-speech, transform audio with speech-to-speech, and generate music from a text description, then attach audio to shots. Character Elements can also store a selected voice to keep performances consistent.
What’s the difference between fast storyboarding and high-quality consistency mode?
Fast storyboarding is optimized for speed and cost, which is ideal for early exploration. High-quality consistency mode takes longer, but it’s designed to better preserve character identity and produce more reliable continuity across shots.
Can I refine one shot without rebuilding the entire storyboard?
Yes. CinemaDrop supports text-based edits for images and video so you can request targeted changes to a specific shot. When available, upscaling can improve quality while keeping your existing composition intact.
