Script-native boards

Generate storyboard frames that read the script, not a random prompt

Paste-only AI tools forget who is in the room and which scene you are covering. ScreenWeaver builds boards from scene structure so every panel belongs to a numbered moment in your story.

Prompt-only storyboards look cinematic and lie about your story

You describe a scene in chat and get a gorgeous frame with the wrong character age, wrong props, and no connection to scene 14 in your script. The image is usable as wallpaper, not as a production document.

Without script linkage, you cannot batch-generate coverage for an entire sequence and trust that geography and wardrobe stay coherent from panel to panel.

When collaborators leave notes on boards, you need scene numbers they recognize. Floating AI images force everyone to cross-reference a separate PDF just to know what they are looking at.

AI storyboards anchored to scene data, not isolated prompts

ScreenWeaver ingests your script scenes and generates panels with slugline context, character presence, and location cues baked into each frame request.

Approve, reject, or regenerate per scene while continuity locks keep faces and costumes aligned across the sequence. The result is a board strip your director, DP, and AI video tools can share.

  • Per-scene generation with slugline and action context
  • Batch coverage for sequences with shared location tags
  • Continuity locks for cast look across multiple panels
  • Inline notes tied to scene numbers for team review

From script import to reviewable board strip

  1. 1

    Parse scenes and cast

    Import your script. ScreenWeaver identifies scenes, speaking characters, and recurring locations so generation requests carry real story data.

  2. 2

    Set visual bible per project

    Upload reference stills or describe tone, lens feel, and palette once. Every generated panel inherits the same cinematographic brief.

  3. 3

    Run scene-by-scene generation

    Generate one or many panels per scene. Reject off-model frames instantly and regenerate without rewriting prompts from scratch.

  4. 4

    Share for notes and next steps

    Send the board strip to collaborators or push approved frames into shot lists and AI video with prompts that reference the same scene IDs.

A showrunner blocking a dialogue-heavy kitchen scene

Dev is prepping a three-hander argument that must read claustrophobic on a modest budget. He generates six panels from the script scene: wide establish, over-shoulders, and two inserts for the prop that triggers the turn. Because frames stay tied to scene 22, his DP adds lens notes directly on the board strip before anyone opens an AI video tool.

Built for this exact job

Scene-scoped prompts

Each generation request includes slugline, characters present, and action summary so the model knows who belongs in frame.

Sequence batching

Cover an entire montage or chase sequence in one pass while location tags keep backgrounds from morphing between panels.

Rapid reject and regen

Kill frames that miss performance or geography and regenerate without losing the scene anchor or continuity locks.

Comment threads on panels

Leave blocking notes on specific frames. Collaborators reply in context instead of emailing unattached JPEGs.

Two ways to work

Without structure

  • One prompt per image with no scene memory
  • Cast appearance shifts between adjacent panels
  • Notes reference filenames instead of scene numbers
  • Regeneration means rewriting prompts from zero

With ScreenWeaver

  • Every frame knows its parent scene and slugline
  • Continuity locks stabilize cast look across sequences
  • Review happens on a numbered board timeline
  • Regenerate inside the same scene without losing context

Questions creators ask

What script formats does ScreenWeaver accept?

Fountain, Final Draft exports, and PDF screenplays are supported. Scene parsing extracts sluglines, action, and character cues for board generation.

How many panels should I generate per scene?

Most dialogue scenes need two to four panels. Action beats may need more. ScreenWeaver lets you set coverage density per scene without affecting the rest of the script.

Can I control aspect ratio for different deliverables?

Yes. Set project aspect ratio for theatrical, streaming, or vertical formats before generation so panels match your exhibition target.

What if the AI misreads a character in a scene?

Edit the scene cast list or pin a reference image for that character, then regenerate. The scene anchor stays fixed while the visual request updates.

Are generated boards watermarked?

Export settings depend on your plan. Approved panels export clean for pitch decks, animatics, and AI video handoff.

How is this different from a general image generator?

General tools produce standalone images. ScreenWeaver produces scene-numbered boards inside a script graph so rewrites, shot lists, and AI video share one source of truth.

Your story should not disappear when production begins

AI generation is not the hard part anymore. Keeping the film coherent is. Start in ScreenWeaver and build the chain before you burn credits.
