Storyboards

See the film before the film.

Plan the beats before you render. Review the references, camera moves and timing, direct each shot and add narration to bring the sequence together.

Giant goldfish floating down a Miami street in a MiniDV-style concept frame

A STORY IN THREE BEATS

One impossible idea. A perfectly ordinary day.

Start with a world the audience recognizes. Introduce one unexpected thing. Let the scene’s small details do the rest.

Story concept · keyframe study
01 / WIDE

Establish the ordinary.

A familiar street. Midday traffic. The world goes about its business.

02 / FOLLOW

Introduce the impossible.

A giant goldfish drifts through the frame. The camera follows as if this happens every day.

03 / DETAIL

Let the world respond.

A passerby barely glances up. That small reaction makes the strange scene feel ordinary.

KEEP THE THREAD THROUGH EVERY SHOT

Direct the scene. Then see the sequence.

Set a shared visual direction, refine each shot’s scene and timing, and review keyframes before rendering. The storyboard gives every creative decision a place in the film.

Scene

What happens and what changes.

Camera

Where the audience looks.

Timing

How long the moment needs.

Continuity

What carries into the next frame.

FROM IDEA TO FINISHED WORK

A place for every creative decision.

  1. 01

    Write the film once.

    Describe the story and choose a visual treatment. Studio can turn the brief into a shot list with scene, camera and timing.

  2. 02

    Direct every beat.

    Edit the scenes, camera moves and shot lengths. Generate and review keyframes to establish the visual thread before rendering motion.

  3. 03

    Bring the sequence together.

    Render and review the shots, write narration for each scene and choose a voice when needed. Assemble the film after checking the available output options and credit estimate.

Can I change individual shots?

Yes. Refine the scene, camera move and timing for each shot, then review the sequence before rendering.

Does planning automatically render the film?

No. Planning and rendering are separate decisions. You review the shot list and generation options before starting the renders.
