FAQs

What does this screenplay breakdown tool for filmmakers create?
It creates a shot-by-shot storyboard sequence based on your script, organized so you can review and refine each moment. From that same storyboard, you can generate images, create video from text or frames, and add audio such as speech, music, and sound effects.
Can I use a script I already wrote?
Yes. Paste in your existing script and generate a storyboard from it to quickly translate scenes into a visual plan. You can then adjust individual shots while keeping the underlying story structure tied to the script.
Do I need to write the script somewhere else first?
No. CinemaDrop includes a Script Wizard that helps you go from idea to synopsis, outline, and a full script, then move straight into storyboarding. You can also manually edit the script or use AI assistance to improve specific passages.
How do you keep the same character consistent across multiple scenes?
You can reference prior generated shots when creating new ones so the look carries forward naturally. Elements let you define reusable characters, locations, and props with reference images to strengthen continuity across the entire storyboard.
Is there an option for faster drafts versus higher-quality consistency?
Yes. You can use a faster, lower-cost option for rapid iteration and a slower, high-quality consistency option when you want stronger identity lock and more reliable final renders. Many teams draft quickly, then switch to higher quality once the sequence is approved.
Can I turn storyboard frames into video within the same project?
Yes. You can generate text-to-video shots or use an image-to-video workflow that transitions between selected start and end frames from your storyboard. This helps you preview motion and pacing while staying in the same story-first workflow.
Can I keep the same voice for a character throughout the story?
Yes. Character Elements can include a voice, and you can generate speech for shots using that voice for consistent dialogue performance. You can also generate music from text descriptions and attach it to shots to maintain tone across scenes.
