How to use Storyboard Generator
Describe the video, length and frames
In "What is the video about?", give the subject, the goal, the total length and the number of frames. For example: "40-second ad for a reusable water bottle, six frames, ends on the bottle and a tagline". A set frame count keeps the board focused.
Start from a format preset
Chips under "Style preset", such as "Ad, 30 seconds" or "Product demo", fill the box with a full request. It lists what each frame must contain. A chip replaces your text, so pick it first, then swap in your product or story.
Check timing and one action per frame
Press "Generate storyboard" and add up the frame durations: they should match your length. Each frame needs one clear action. If frames feel vague, ask for shot size, camera move, action and duration in every frame. Then generate again.
Turn frames into images or video
The buttons under the result open the image or video generator with the whole storyboard as the prompt. For a single shot, keep only that frame's description in the text box before you generate.

A storyboard is a budget document
Deciding shots before you generate saves credits. Each frame gets a purpose and you stop rerolling the same idea.
What each shot includes
Shot type, action, camera move, lighting note and duration. That is exactly the vocabulary video models reward.
From board to footage
Under the result, one click sends the full storyboard to the image or video generator as its prompt. To render one shot only, delete the other frames from the box first.
What a run costs here
16 credits per 1k words with the default model, Long-form Writing. Short-form Copy costs 3 credits per run. The exact total sits above the button before you generate.
