Lock Character and Prop Continuity

Create reusable Elements for characters, locations, and props so your cast and assets stay instantly recognizable from scene to scene. Reuse prior outputs as references when generating new shots to maintain identity, wardrobe, and signature silhouettes. Your style guide stays reliable even as you change angles, lenses, and staging.

Add Motion and Audio for Proof

Turn key storyboard frames into video using text-to-video or image-to-video with start and end frames, so your style guide includes motion examples—not just stills. Add speech, music, and sound effects per shot to pressure-test tone and rhythm. You end up with a richer reference for how your sci-fi film should feel when it’s in motion.

FAQs

What does a visual style guide for sci fi film include in CinemaDrop?
You can build it as a storyboard-driven set of reference frames that define characters, locations, props, lighting, color, and overall mood. By reusing Elements and prior shots as references, the guide stays coherent as you expand to new scenes. You can also add motion and audio to show how the style plays in action.
Can I start from an existing script?
Yes. You can paste in a script and generate a storyboard to start visualizing a consistent sci-fi world. From there, iterate on shots while using references and Elements to keep continuity.
How do I keep the same character across multiple shots?
CinemaDrop supports consistency by letting you reuse previous outputs as references and by using character Elements. When you generate new angles or shot sizes, anchoring to the same references helps preserve face, wardrobe, and overall identity across the sequence.
What’s the difference between fast storyboarding and high-quality consistency?
Fast options prioritize speed and cost so you can explore ideas quickly, but quality and continuity can vary more between shots. High-quality consistency is better suited for final renders where stronger identity lock and more dependable continuity matter. A common approach is to iterate fast, then finalize with the consistency-focused mode.
Can the style guide include animated examples?
Yes. You can generate text-to-video shots or convert storyboard images into video using start and end frames to shape motion. This helps demonstrate camera energy, atmosphere, and pacing as part of the guide.
Does CinemaDrop support voice and sound design for the same project?
Yes. You can generate speech, music, and sound effects and attach them to shots within the same storyboard workflow. Character Elements can also include a chosen voice to help keep performance consistent across dialogue beats.
Can I refine images or video without starting over?
CinemaDrop supports text-based editing for both images and video, so you can describe the changes you want instead of rebuilding from scratch. When available, upscaling can improve resolution and overall polish while keeping the core concept intact.
