FAQs

What is an explainer video storyboard template documentary used for?
It’s a practical structure for translating a documentary-style explanation into shots—interviews, b-roll, and key moments—so the story stays clear and intentional. In CinemaDrop, you can turn that structure into a storyboard you can review and refine before generating video and audio.
Can I create a documentary storyboard if I already have a script?
Yes. Paste your script and generate a storyboard of images to quickly see how the sequence plays on screen. It’s a fast way to spot missing coverage, awkward transitions, or pacing issues before you move forward.
What if I only have a topic idea and no script yet?
CinemaDrop includes a Script Wizard that guides you from a rough idea to a complete script through structured steps. Once the script is drafted, you can generate a storyboard to convert the narrative into a shot-by-shot plan.
How can I keep people and locations consistent across shots?
CinemaDrop is designed for continuity by letting you reuse previous generations as references and by creating Elements for characters, locations, and props. Adding multiple reference images to an Element typically improves consistency across scenes and reduces identity drift.
What’s the difference between fast iteration and high-quality consistency?
Fast iteration helps you explore options quickly and at lower cost while you’re still shaping the story. High-quality consistency is intended for locking final shots with stronger continuity and more reliable results, even if it takes longer.
Can I turn storyboard frames into video for a documentary explainer?
Yes. You can generate video from text prompts or use image-to-video anchored by start and end frames selected from your storyboard. This keeps motion aligned with your planned beats instead of improvising the sequence.
Can I add narration, voices, and music in the same project?
Yes. CinemaDrop supports text-to-speech, speech-to-speech voice transformation, and text-to-music, with audio that can be attached to shots. You can also assign a voice to a character Element to keep narration or dialogue consistent across scenes.
