FAQs

How do I create a visual style guide for horror film with CinemaDrop?
Start by turning your idea or script into a storyboard so you can define tone, lighting, and framing shot by shot. Generate images into the storyboard and iterate on shot descriptions until the look feels consistent. Reuse prior shots as references to keep the same visual language across the sequence.
Can I start from an existing script I already wrote?
Yes. Paste your script and generate a storyboard to quickly map it into shots. From there, you can refine each frame so the storyboard becomes a practical visual style guide for horror film.
What helps keep the same character and location style across scenes?
CinemaDrop supports continuity through reference-based generation and Elements. Create Elements for characters, locations, and props, then reuse them across shots to anchor identity and environment. Referencing earlier outputs also helps maintain a stable look as you expand the sequence.
What’s the difference between fast storyboarding and high-quality consistency?
Fast storyboarding is optimized for speed and cost so you can explore ideas quickly, but consistency may vary. High-quality consistency is slower and aims for stronger identity lock and more uniform results across shots. Many creators explore in fast mode, then finalize key frames in high-quality mode.
Can my horror style guide include motion, not just stills?
Yes. You can generate text-to-video shots, or create image-to-video using storyboard images as start and end frames. This lets your visual direction extend into movement and pacing for selected moments.
Can I add voice and sound to test the atmosphere?
Yes. You can generate speech and attach voices to character Elements for continuity, and you can generate music and sound effects for individual shots. Adding audio helps you judge whether the tension and timing match the look you are building.
Do I have to redo everything if I want to adjust a shot’s look?
No. CinemaDrop supports text-based editing for both images and video, so you can request targeted changes without restarting the sequence. When supported, upscaling can also improve quality while keeping the same direction.
