AI Storyboard & Shot List

Converts scripts into visual storyboards with shot descriptions, camera angles, and timing for AI video production

Storyboard & Shot List Features

Transform any script into a production-ready storyboard with structured shot lists, camera direction, timing, and AI-ready visual prompts.

Script-to-Storyboard Conversion

Parses your video script and automatically breaks it into scenes, shots, and frames with visual descriptions that map directly to the narration timeline.

Structured Shot List Generation

Outputs a detailed shot list with shot number, type (wide, medium, close-up), duration, subject, action, and visual notes in a format ready for production or AI generation.

Camera Angle Suggestions

Recommends camera angles and movements for each shot — dolly, pan, orbit, tracking, static, drone — based on the scene's emotional tone and narrative purpose.

Timing & Pacing Breakdown

Assigns frame-accurate timing to each shot, calculates total scene durations, and identifies pacing issues like too many static shots or insufficient visual variety.

AI Visual Reference Prompts

Generates SCELA-formatted prompts for each storyboard frame, ready to feed directly into Midjourney, Flux, DALL-E, or Seedance for keyframe image generation.

Scene Transition Design

Suggests transition types between scenes — cuts, dissolves, wipes, match cuts, and L-cuts — with timing recommendations to maintain visual flow and narrative rhythm.

How to Create AI Storyboards from Scripts

Convert any video script into a structured storyboard with shot lists and visual prompts in four steps.

1

Install the Storyboard Skill

Add the AI Storyboard & Shot List skill to your Claude Code workspace. It reads script output from the script writer skill or accepts any text script as input.

2

Input Your Script

Paste your video script or connect the output from the AI Script Writer skill. The storyboard skill parses narration, shot notes, and scene breaks automatically.

3

Generate the Storyboard

The skill creates a frame-by-frame storyboard with shot descriptions, camera angles, timing, transitions, and AI image prompts for each visual beat in your script.

4

Export the Shot List

Export the structured shot list as JSON, CSV, or formatted text. Use it to drive the keyframe generation stage or share it with a production team for manual shooting.
