Turn Frames Into Motion

After your Vertical Storyboard Template is locked in, you can bring key moments to life by generating video for the sequence. Create video from text prompts or generate motion guided by selected start and end frames from your storyboard. This keeps your shot order intact while you explore timing, movement, and tone.

FAQs

What is a vertical storyboard template used for?
A vertical storyboard template is used to plan a story as a top-to-bottom sequence of shots so pacing and continuity are easy to review. In CinemaDrop, that same sequence can guide the generation of consistent images, video, and audio aligned to your narrative.
Can I create a storyboard from a script I already have?
Yes. You can paste an existing script and generate a storyboard that breaks it into a shot-by-shot visual plan. Then you can refine shots while keeping the overall sequence organized around your story beats.
How does CinemaDrop help keep characters consistent across storyboard shots?
CinemaDrop supports consistency by letting you reuse previous outputs as references when generating new shots. You can also use Elements for characters, locations, and props to anchor identity and world details across the sequence.
Is there an option for faster iterations versus higher consistency?
Yes. CinemaDrop includes a faster, lower-cost mode for quick storyboarding iterations and a higher-quality consistency option when you want stronger identity lock and more reliable results. You can choose based on whether you’re exploring ideas or polishing a sequence.
Can a vertical storyboard template turn into video inside CinemaDrop?
Yes. You can generate video for shots from text prompts or use an image-to-video approach by selecting start and end frames from your storyboard. This helps you keep your planned shot order while adding motion.
Can I add dialogue and music to the storyboard sequence?
Yes. CinemaDrop supports generating speech and music and attaching audio to shots. Character Elements can also include a voice so dialogue can stay consistent for that character across scenes.
If a shot is almost right, do I have to start over?
No. CinemaDrop includes text-based edit workflows for images and video so you can describe changes and refine without regenerating everything. When available, upscaling can also improve quality while preserving the core look and intent.
