Composition
Compare wide, medium and close views before committing to production.
SHOT PLANNING
See the sequence before the shoot
Break a scene into frames that show the setting, action and changing point of view. The lighthouse sequence is an illustrative concept board, not a generated Astorie sequence.
Visualize one shot
Write the action, camera framing, subject and setting for a single frame. Use a permitted visual reference if helpful, then assemble approved frames into your board.
How to plan shots with AI frames
- 1
Break down the scene
List the action and the purpose of each shot before making images.
- 2
Create frames separately
Describe framing, subject and continuity for one shot at a time, reusing approved references where useful.
- 3
Assemble and review
Put selected frames in sequence and check geography, character details, pacing and missing transitions.
What a storyboard can clarify
Continuity
Spot changes in wardrobe, props, setting and screen direction between frames.
Revision points
Replace an individual weak shot without rebuilding the entire sequence.
Inputs, output and review
| Input | A scene brief or script excerpt, plus optional permitted references. | |
|---|---|---|
| Output | Individual visual shot concepts; board layout and animation are separate steps. | |
| Review | Check story clarity, continuity and whether each frame serves the planned action. |
AI storyboard generator FAQ
Will a script automatically become a complete board?
This page generates one image at a time. Break the script into shots and arrange the results into a board.
Can I use a frame to explore motion?
An approved image can be used as a reference in a separate image-to-video workflow, subject to that workflow’s current controls.
Will recurring characters look identical?
No. Reuse references and review every frame for changes in faces, clothing and props.
Start with the opening shot
Visualize one frame, refine it, and build the sequence shot by shot.
