Animatic Maker For Students From Script To Screen

  • Storyboard First Animatics

    Start with a storyboard and build a shot sequence you can refine before adding motion and audio.

  • Script Wizard And Editing

    Develop a script from an idea with guided steps, then revise scenes with manual and AI-assisted edits.

  • Consistency With Elements

    Reuse characters, locations, props, and references so your shots stay coherent across a project.

Turn Scripts Into Shot Sequences

Convert a class script into a shot-by-shot storyboard you can review like an animatic and refine before anything feels “locked.” Start from an idea with the Script Wizard or paste in your own screenplay, then iterate scene-by-scene to sharpen pacing, coverage, and key visual beats. You’ll spend less time guessing and more time making confident shot choices.

Keep Characters Consistent

Continuity is what makes an animatic feel like one film instead of disconnected frames. CinemaDrop helps you keep a stable look by reusing prior outputs as references and by organizing characters, locations, and props as Elements. The result is fewer off-model surprises and a stronger, cohesive world across your sequence.

Evolve Boards Into Motion

When your boards work, you can generate video clips for individual shots without leaving the storyboard flow. Create text-to-video moments or guide motion using selected start and end frames to keep composition and staging on-track. It’s an easy way for students to create motion tests that match the planned shots and read clearly in sequence.

Add Voice, Music, And Sound

Make your animatic communicate timing and emotion by adding audio directly to shots. Generate speech from text, transform recorded speech into a selected voice, and create music from a description to shape tone early. You can also associate a voice with a character Element so performances stay consistent across scenes.

FAQs

What makes CinemaDrop an animatic maker for students?
CinemaDrop is built around a storyboard-first workflow where a script becomes a sequence of shots you can review and iterate. You can then generate motion for selected shots and add speech, music, and sound to test timing and mood. It also supports continuity by letting you reuse references and organize core assets as Elements.
Can I start from a simple idea for a school assignment?
Yes. The Script Wizard guides you from a premise to characters, a synopsis, an outline, and a complete script. From there, you can generate a storyboard from the script to see the story beat-by-beat.
Can I use my own script instead of generating one?
Yes. You can paste an existing script into CinemaDrop and generate a storyboard from it. This works well when your class requires an original screenplay but you still want a fast path to an animatic plan.
How does CinemaDrop help keep characters the same across shots?
You can reuse previous generated images as references when creating new shots to reinforce the same look. Elements let you define characters, locations, and props and attach reference images to strengthen continuity. Together, these tools help your animatic feel consistent from the first shot to the last.
Can I generate motion from a storyboard shot?
Yes. Once you have storyboard frames, you can generate video clips for individual shots as part of the same workflow. You can also guide motion using chosen start and end frames to keep the shot aligned with your intended composition.
How do voices and music fit into an animatic?
You can generate speech from text, transform recorded speech into a selected voice, and generate music from a description. Attach audio to shots to evaluate pacing, performance, and tone earlier in the process. For continuity, you can associate a voice with a character Element so the same character sounds consistent across scenes.
Do I need to switch between different AI tools to make an animatic?
No. CinemaDrop is designed as an all-in-one studio for images, video, and audio inside a single storyboard workspace. It provides access to multiple third-party models with different strengths and credit costs, so you can choose what fits each shot while staying in the same project.
