The storyboard creator where the board becomes the cut

Every panel is a frame carrying its shot, action, dialogue and timing. When the board is approved, the video timeline in the same project cuts the sequence and exports the MP4.

Shots planned on frames that cut straight to the timeline.

The shared live canvas: video and timeline frames beside the deck and calendar they feed. Click in and drag a panel.

Plan the shots, then keep the plan

Describe the film and Shyne lays the board out as panels on one canvas, each carrying its shot, action, dialogue and timing. Read the row left to right and the missing beat is visible before anything gets shot.

Most storyboard creators produce a plan you abandon the day the edit starts. This board carries through, because the panels and the timeline live in the same project.

Plan the shots

The panels you boarded become the clips you cut, against the timings everyone already agreed.

Panels are frames, and frames become the timeline

Each panel is a real HTML frame, so shot labels, dialogue and timings are editable text rather than handwriting on a scan. When the sequence is approved, the video timeline takes the shots as clips, adds an audio bed and text overlays, and exports the MP4.

You cut against the timings you boarded instead of re-entering them somewhere else.

The board is the first cut, not a drawing of one.

What every panel carries

  • The shot

    Wide, close, over the shoulder, plus the move and the lens when they matter.

  • The action

    One line of what happens. If it needs two lines, it is two panels.

  • The dialogue

    The spoken line, or the deliberate silence, attached to the exact frame it plays over.

  • The timing

    In and out points on every panel, so six shots visibly add up to thirty seconds.

Action, dialogue and timing are editable text, so a note lands on the exact shot it means.

Every AI works on the same storyboards canvas.

Bring the agent you already use. It reads the brief, sees the work and writes the next editable frame — no exported file, no paste, no drift.

One shared canvas

Every storyboards frame stays visible to people and agents at the same time.

Always on brand

Your colors, type and reusable assets stay attached to every storyboards variation.

Editable output

The result lands as real frames and objects, ready for the next human decision.

Media in context

Generate or place imagery where the composition needs it, without leaving the working surface.

Open to every agent

Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Cursor, Grok and your own agent work through the same MCP surface.

Ready to ship

Move from the approved canvas to the useful file, link or published format without rebuilding it.

Run the sequence by asking

The agent works the same panels and the same timeline, so a note becomes a change in the sequence rather than a memo about one.

  • Tighten the middle, we lose people at shot fourThe run is retimed and every panel shows its new in and out points.
  • Generate a dusk version of the opening stillMedia generation swaps the panel image in place. Framing and timing hold.
  • Cut the approved board on the timelineShots land as clips in order with the audio bed underneath.

The sequence reads left to right on one canvas, so the missing beat shows itself before the shoot.

From boarded to exported without changing tools

Board the shots, argue on the panels, cut on the timeline, export the MP4. One project holds the plan and the film, so what was approved is what got made.

Approved on the board means visible in the cut, shot for shot.

Questions

How do I create a storyboard with AI?

Describe the film and the agent lays out one panel per shot, each with framing, action, dialogue and timing as editable text. Reorder by dragging frames on the canvas.

Do I need to be able to draw?

No. Panels take generated imagery, your own stills or plain blocked shapes. Media generation runs in place, so the dusk version of shot one is an ask, not a reshoot.

Can the storyboard become the video?

The same project holds a video timeline. Approved panels come across as clips in order, you add the audio bed and overlays, and the export is an MP4.

Can the crew mark up the board?

Everyone edits the same canvas live, so notes land on the panel they mean. Timings and dialogue are text, which means a late change is a retype, not a redraw.
